Talking Just found a frog in the garden!

Just found him wandering around on the path. Bit strange as there are no ponds or anything around here.
Anyway, I was so impressed by what i found, so I tool a quick pic.



Not intent with a pic I decided to show the kids, they were in bed so I woke them up!

They too were rather impressed at my discovery and insisted I had my picture taken with him.



The wife wasn't too pleased when I woke her up to show her though!

I think it's a toad

Difference between frogs and toads

Looks more like a toad to me which would explain why you found it when there are no ponds around.

Picture would be just right on the cover on an Animal Research Laboratory brochure - just need to perfect that evil grin

Don't think you are doing him a favour by putting into a pond. They only go into ponds when they are breeding.

Very old joke........

Little kid says to his grandpa "Hello Grandpa - can you make a noise like a frog?"

Grandpa says "Well yes I expect so, but why do you want to know?"

Little lad replies "'Cos mum says we can all have a trip to Disneyland when you croak!"

Maybe the poor little chap was dropped by a bird who was taking him home for lunch. It might have been his lucky day! Best if you know of a grassy bit near a pond to return him to.

It's a toad.

I found one in my cycling shoe the other day - tried to shake it out but the bu66er really hung on!

Must agree that my daughter didn't catch my best side with the camera, but hey, It was a mega cheesey grin at 1 o'clock in the morning!

Here's a better one, minus mr toad.
