Was not expecting to come across as many of these American Toads as I did during my trip across Newfoundland. These were big toads too. Much larger than any of the American Toads I've seen in Nova Scotia.

I have several toads in my gardens - ranging from black, to mottled, to light brown depending on what type of soil they hang out in. This one I found to be particularly handsome with his mottled colours

Found this huge American Toad at verdun beach while looking to photograph snakes with my new portable diffuser set-up for macro. It was the biggest I had ever seen so I decided to take his portrait.

"American Toad And Pollen" by Debbie Oppermann. I am not a huge fan of toads but this tiny one was so cute just sitting on the pollen covered deck in Pointe Au Baril, Sturgeon Bay Ontario Canada.

This toad was resting in seclusion under a large log, with the morning rays lighting up its head just enough for me to notice it was there. I often think they are staying out of the sun, but toads have so many predators and they travel such distances to lay their eggs in rivers. I like to think this one was protecting itself. After the toads "went home" we noticed millions of tadpoles in the river in areas just like this one.

This toad, with a lighter color, was warming itself in the sun, perhaps resting after its long swim to this location. We are so used to seeing toads on land. When I returned to finish my paddle on the river, i passed what looked like a fish jumping in the water. I'd seen many similar behaviors that day and stopped to look before my paddle was over. To my amazement, it was a toad jumping across the river to an island to mate. It must have travelled more than 100 yards to arrive where I saw it, and was jumping about a yard out of the water at a time. Who knew!

This toad was caught out of the corner of my eye as a kayaked through a very fast part of the river. Unlike the other toads I saw this one had made a hole in the dirt and it looked blue. I let the kayak drift back and snapped a few shots, this one in focus. It had in incredible colour. Two days later a saw it in the same hole mating with another toad. Incredible and beautiful to see.

Two of the many pairs of toads observed in this year's mating season. Often hard to photograph because they take shelter in the reeds. These two allowed me time to focus and capture the beautiful light of the water in which they lay their eggs.

In May 2021 I noticed the numerous croaking sounds of toads. I started to look around and found an abundance of them in a secluded & calm area on the river. Standing in shallow water, they are quite beautiful.

Nearly missed this little guy, walking along the beautiful Trail. Stopped to look at how enormous the world looks from the toads eyes.

Birds do it, Bees do it, even educated Fleas... In the spring of 2016 at a run off collection pond, I found those two Toads in the shallow part of the pond doing what comes natural in spring. I took this shot knowing that I was given a rare opportunity as this "pond" will be dry in a few days.

I am not a pebble! A tiny American Toad found hiding among the gravel and shrubs. Pictured here fenced in by my girlfriend's fingertips (the little guy wouldn't stop hopping away).

It was a dark afternoon spent in the quiet woods photographing fungi. Some movement caught my eye as a large toad made its way across the forest floor. I used a wide angle lens to include the toad in its forest environment.

Walking the woodland trail, as we do quite often, we encountered this American Toad on the fall leaves, totally camouflaged . I was happy I had my camera with me and was able to capture this image.

found this quarter size fellow on an old woods road that is surrounded by clear cuts. They say if you see one in the day it is likely running for it's life from something. I hope it wasn't my camera lens

In the spring at Hillman Marsh there is always a deafening chorus of American Toads as we are birding the Shorebird Cell. Most people don't even take a second look at them but when you see them close up they are very interesting and all have intricate and different markings. This one was particularly striking and I was lucky enough to catch him in the act of calling!

I placed this toad in the garden with a good view of the patio. Plenty of snakes sunning themselves nearby.

The pool cover in the spring is the most popular spot in the yard for the toads. Millions of eggs are laid and few survive.
