Common Toad in my garden I just found this toad in our garden whilst trimming the grass. It seems well camouflaged from the dirt. I'm very happy with this spotting, since for some reason I have never photographed a "wild" toad before in the Netherlands. Based on its striped eye and size I am assuming this is a Bufo Bufo (common toad). Bufo bufo,Common toad,Heesch Click/tap to enlarge
