Well done rescuing it but maybe you should have kissed it and found your prince, that froglet is a toadling, they have had a bad year and every one saved is great for the environment, well done you:thumbsup:
Brilliant pictures by the way, if you look closely you can make out tiny bumps over it (sure sign its a toad)

How can you tell a toad from a frog, it's something I've always wondered. :confused:

Yeah but you can't see smooth or lumps and bumps in K.S.H's picture so how's todbear managed to tell them apart?

frogs tend to be slightly more green coloured and toads are more brown coloured, I have been watching them leaving the canal from my boat, I took loads of photos but none were a patch on that one. One morning there were dozens climbing the side of the canal and moving into little holes I shall put one of my pics up but they are not very good

here is one picture please bear in mind I am hanging over the side of the boat and had to use flash as it was dark down there, the picture has been cropped to show up the toads so definition is not good

Frog trivia question

Where in the world is the only place where the indiginous frogs make a ribbit, ribbit noise?
