Does anyone recognise this spawn?

Does anyone recognise this please. It is in a patio pond, raised off the ground. There are a couple of established goldfish that have bred before. Frogs find there way into it from two other ponds and we had 60 + newts brought to the garden 18 months or so ago. Water snails are in the pond to.

  • Those are definitely snail eggs.

    If you start to look more closely around the sides of your pond and under the leaves of some of your pond plants you will probably find more. Snails adhered their eggs to any surface possible.

    Pond snails breed very effectively in the correct conditions.

    Hope that helps :)
