Our toad days started a month early this year, then put on ice. This means the toad spring will be stretched out over time. By back a few weeks ago, hundreds of them bobbing about awkwardly in the water looking for a good time. It is amazing how during the rest of the year, I almost never see the larger toads. But in the spring, they all come out. The driveway is a popular spot to get after worms during the spring, so we are VERY careful mowing and driving this time of year.
