Toad
Uploaded: April 28, 2005
This little guy hopped off the trail I was hiking on, right onto a light colored beech leaf. I'm sure he felt his best defense was to freeze and "blend in", so I was able to get pretty close.

I think he just knew he would look his best with the leaf as a bg and posed so you could get this shot. It is perfect - so clear and detailed. #1301115Gordon B. Keyes April 28, 2005
Thank You Ivan, Tammy, Jill and Marsha!!!! And Marsha, you may be onto something there. The next time I'm in the woods, I'm going to sit down and invite all the animals to come out and pose for BP and immortality! Worth a shot. Thanks, again.Kerby Pfrangle April 28, 2005
