I live in rural Herefordshire, at least a mile from any known pond/water source. We have just discovered 3 great crested newts in our plastic compost bin! Is this normal and is there anything we should do (apart of course from not disturbing them) like informing anyone?

You might also like to let your local English Nature office know:

They will be interested, especially if this is a new record for your area.
