I see several over the summer , they never seem to get very large. I think the largest one I have ever seen is about as big around as a pencil and a bit longer. Quote | Post #135140 (2)

This year all the toads I have seen have been small/medium in size. Normally there are two large fat toads near the front porch , I have not seen either this year. Quote | Post #250213 (12)

I am a bit surprised to see a leopard frog It has been very hot and dry this month. There has been another frog that lives in Nigel's pond , but he is too quick for me to get a shot of him. Quote | Post #382956 (20)
