    Default Common Toad

    Found this individual on a footpath today. It was about 8cm long, I think I've identified it correctly as a male common toad. Please put me right if I'm wrong (again).

    Sorry grumpyhippo,I don't have a clue about what kind of toad that is in the pictures, I do ,however have an eye for a good picture and these two are cracking. I feel as if i can reach out and touch the toad and be able to fell every contour. Well done you and i hope someone identifies the species for you.
