Tonight I found a newt in my house again !
There was one in only two or three days ago, and again sometime in the summer.
They are such beautiful little things and I am always honoured to have a visit from them. But it would be so easy to tread on them without knowing, so I put them outside.
There is a small garden pond at a neighbour's a quarter of a mile away, and I do know they have newts. Would newts travel that distance on dry land? And why? Why come into a house too? Are they looking for somewhere to hibernate for the winter?
