Here I was, playing with Drew in the yard on Sunday, enjoying the record breaking warm weather. We have a small family of toads that lives in our basement window covering, and a few in the flowers in the back yard.
Drew had never seen a toad before then, and he enjoyed following one around, giggling and smiling at the quick jumps and hops.
Can you imagine playing in your yard in Australia?? This toad was found during a pond raid by scientists trying to rid the area of this toxic creature responsible for large animal deaths. The toad measured 15 inches long and weighed just over 2 pounds....
You can bet Steve Irwin would have made a great show out of this capture....and if you believe in long mythical tales....this guy will have warts for the rest of his life!!!!
