Death Among The Elephant Ears


Just took this pic in my front flowerbed. It's 15 min. after midnight- what about, "Midnight Snack In The Garden Of Good And Evil" for a title? That particular toad over wintered in the water meter box. Note his left eye looks clear-not an illusion, only the bottom part was pigmented. I called him Hypno Toad. Very interesting encounter with one of our friends of the woodland realm.
I set a cat size port a pet crate near the porch with a piece of steak in it-I'll try to catch and release it, if it lives long enough- toads are very toxic.
