I love a frog! At my house I'd have to be keeping my dogs off of him, though!

We have toads -- lots of them! There is one we refer to as Grandfather and then lots and lots of smaller ones. We try our best not to hurt them, because I know they eat bugs. I am sometimes startled by them when I am weeding by hand and one suddenly hops out of nowhere!

How darling he is!!!!! We have quite a few toad holes throughout our garden this season. We have added so much extra mulch and I am guessing it may attract them.

He looks like a few of my ex-boyfriends.. No offense to the toad.

Lisa, I laughed myself silly when I read your post. Actually, I think I dated the same guy . . .
No, seriously, Grace, your frog is a cutie, and I love the way they"sing" at night.
