Toad 006 DSC_0990
Peter took this photo of a toad among the wet leaves on our lawn. I thought of cropping to emphasize the toad, but left it full frame to show how it blended in with the leaves. North of Watsons Corners, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.
I nearly stepped on this pair of toads by the side of the pond, they are so well camouflaged. Photo Kevin Keatley, Camera Nikon D7200, 18-200@38mm, F10, 1/60 sec., ISO 200
Stumbled upon this American Toad on a walk through the trails near the McKenzie Marsh. I think he liked the attention!
I have three of these little guys running around the outside of my house and was finally able to get this little fella. Tiny little buggers that are difficult as hell to get to hold still.

This was very small toad, using the adjacent moss sporophyte as a reference.
There were loads of toads at Titchwell at the weekend. This was one of the lucky females though, many were having to fight off multiple males, with one in the middle of at least six males
This handsome warty fellow barely missed the rotating blades of my lawn mower. I had my camera close by and he kindly obliged and let me take his portrait while he recovered from shock in the undergrowth .
He was quite a large toad, over 3" long, he looks even more handsome full screen.

South American Common Toad (Rhinella margaritifera) - San Martin Department, Peru
Unsure of the ID of this particular toad as it did look markedly different than the other R. margaritifera I saw. Enjoyed the juxtaposition of the toad and the tiny fragile little fungi growing on this leaf on the forest floor.
This is the only living Toad I have seen this spring, I suspect the cold weather in March and the abundance of predators (especially crows) has dramatically reduced their numbers.
...discovered lurking underneath a column drum, & saved in the nick of time from the heavy machinery.
BY J. PATRICK LEWIS
I was really in a muddle
looking over a mud puddle
'cause I didn't have a paddle
or a twig to ride the reef.
But I said, Oh, fiddle-faddle,
this is just a little piddle
of a second fiddle puddle
so I saddled up a leaf.
I set sail on the puddle,
but I reached the muddy middle
and I rocked the leaf a little,
then I gave it all I had.
And I solved the mighty riddle
of the whole caboodle puddle
when I hopped up on the middle
of a beetle launching pad.

(Okay, maybe not my all-time favourite, but fun to say fast!)
Just made a small pond in the back garden about four weeks ago as we occasionally see the odd Frog and Toad. This little fella has moved in already…
Forest Toad (Ingerophrynus divergens) - Danum Valley, Malaysia
I frequently say I love the jungle because you never know what you'll find and even after months you can still be surprised. I also frequently say I love toads. So what could be better than being surprised by a new species of toad in the jungle after months of night hiking. Not only was it a new species of toad for me but it was also a new genus! Ingerophrynus currently contains 12 species scattered around South East Asia, the species in the photo is Ingerophrynus divergensm, a toad that is relatively widespread in Borneo and patchily distributed in Sumatra. This toad was photographed as found sitting on low vegetation (knee height) which I found slightly unusual for a terrestrial species, not long after seeing this one I found a second individual also sitting on knee height vegetation and those remain the only individuals of this species I have seen. Although widely distributed this is not an abundant species as goes to show by my rare encountering of it and supported by a bit more trustworthy source; info from IUCN.

It was very difficult to spot this tiny little toad in the dirt on the ground as it is was only about 2cm long and blended in so well with its surroundings.
Thank you for visiting my site and taking the time to leave a comment. Truly appreciated!
(Phrynoidis juxtasper) Sabah, Borneo. This toad was huge -- body length I'd guess a good eight inches plus!
There were quite a few baby frogs and toads hopping around Titchwell and some, including this toad were living quite dangerously, hopping across the main path

Neighbor Toad posing for a photo somewhat reluctantly but let me have several shots before hopping away. He was probably hatched in a pond that's in the yard. A toad is actually a frog and no distinction is made in taxonomy although they spend less time in water than frogs do. They eat insects and are good to have in the garden.
