Pictures of Toads

In the past two days, we’ve had three toads fall in the pool. Yesterday, we found a really huge one down at the bottom. Laura spotted him early in the morning and alerted me to him about an hour after she saw him. She thought he was a frog. By the time I got outside to fish the “frog” out, I realized it was a toad and thought he was dead. He was waiting down at the floor of the pool. When I scooped him up, he sprung back to life and started swimming around. Did you know toads can swim?

Today brought two more toads. A fairly small one and a fairly large one. The large one wasn’t nearly as big the one from yesterday, but he was still big. Laura and I brought both of them into the woods and let them go. But before they went too far…you know what happened. Laura began taking pictures of them.

You have to see these. I think they’re great. Nice, up close shots of some toads. I love the texture of the skin. Take a quick gander and let me know what you think of them in the comment section below. Remember, click on the photo itself to see a really up close shot.
