American Toad

Bufo americanus

Notes:

As soon as we stepped outside my excited little dog lurched into the shadows nearby. Lucky for him he missed the toad he was lurching for ... mostly; the bitter venom they secrete just made him rather uncomfortable for a few moments 'since Dog' did not get very much in his mouth. It was just enough that 'Dog' learned to be was much more respectful from then on. /n The guy pictured here was nearby at the time and remain still through the whole thing. He (?) continued to sit there for quite a while giving me plenty of time to fetch a camera
