The toad

Late last night, my brother spotted this toad on the concrete at the back of our house:

This is most definitely a toad: toads have dry, bumpy skin and they crawl whereas frogs have moist, smooth skin and they hop. This toad allowed me to photograph it; it didn't seem to be in any hurry to get away from me and my brother.

    Nice toad! I don't think I've ever seen a toad.

      I think this is the second time I've seen one. :)

      I liked them, too! I expected the toad to look at me and then crawl off but it didn't.
