| | | Toads or Frogs?
Normally I don't have any problems telling the difference. Toady we saw a right mix, with a typical mating frenzy going on. Only problem is, to me this one looks like toads and frogs together  
Are these Frogs? 
These were all in the same small pond. |

 Amazing sight. Wonder how often this sort of thing happens.

Agree with the other photo 2 common frogs. |

Don't male frogs get caught up in the moment and just grab anything that comes along rather than singling out a mate? |
