A Well Camouflaged Toad

A Well Camouflaged Toad

August 13, 2024 Elizabeth

This American Toad was So Well Camouflaged! Scroll through the progression in the gallery to “zoom” in! When do you spot him?

  • Toad from afar
  • Getting Closer
  • See him yet
  • Now you spot him
  • Peeking out
  • See me now
  • Not Amused
  • Leave me be!

Later we spotted this toad huddling under our little American Flag.
