Raucous Toad This little fellow hung around with me for a little while whilst searching for fungi. Now I know where all the noise comes from!<br />
From Wiki: Although its vocalisations vary, the most characteristic call is a loud, incessant duck-like quacking, mainly at night. It quacks almost entirely in the breeding season, generally in groups of males near the water&#039;s edge.

  1. Great new species introduction! And about the fungi over the toad? Posted 11 years ago, modified 11 years ago
  2. Great species intro, and very well captured with habitat included. Great choice of F18 as well, it really is sharp edge to edge. Posted 11 years ago
  3. Beautiful pic of the toad Posted 11 years ago
