Spots of the Toad

I love this guy's clothes---so stylishly spotted. He was enjoying a day at the marsh with me and was eating insects before they ate me.

The Year of the Frog

2011 is surely the year of the frog; I'm finding them everywhere--thousands of tiny frogs in pathways, roads, and stream side.

Is this a picture of a toad or a frog?  You can bet that it is a frog. All toads are frogs, although all frogs are not toads. And in some cases it is difficult to determine those toads among the frogs.  

Mr. Toad

There are no shortage of insects this year.

This toad was sitting in the sun in the middle of a path, lazily feasting on the bonanza that flew by.
