Found this guy on the sidewalk after running our irrigation system. I put him back in the garden where "Hawkboy" and the local feral cats won't find him. Amazingly good camouflage.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Toads are on the species at risk list here, seems our prairie toads are just as susceptible to the carrier agent in "Round-Up" as our leopard frogs are. I haven't seen one in ten years.

What kind of toad is he? He's almost a perfect match for a garden stone.

Not sure the type. Just our common garden toad. He's the first I've found with this amazing camo. Probably why I've never noticed them before!
@bigpawbullets My garden is full of leopard frogs which are a bright green with black leopard patterned spots. I keep the garden moist and I let it run wild a bit with only the larger weeds getting trimmed down with the weedwhacker and it gives them enough habitat to live and eat bugs and slugs.
@Surfpirate
Sounds like we're from the same tribe. We let our gardens and borders go a bit wild too. We like the plants and the creatures the plants attract. From insects to mammals.. they're great fun to watch. Much better than the national news!!
