    Mr Toad

    As a kid I loved the frog and toad Series of books still do--- saw this little guy when I was watering the plants... with a 18-50mm kit lens ---that should tell you how close I had to get...my kids were asking if I was o.k. and why I was laying on the ground until they saw out little amphibean.... I wanted to kiss hima nd squeeze and call him all mine
    (a la Elmira) ---except he woulda peed on me so I didn't...enjoy

    look at those delicious sweet little toes...mmm...

    Looks like someone I know just can't remember who. Nice little critter.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??
