Toad

I almost always have surprise every time I go to the garden. There’s the cat and the kittens and this time it’s a toad and it is big too. I always wonder how the soil in my potted eggplant gets disturbed every time as if something is scratching it and leaves an indentation. Then one day I was watering and there it was, a big toad! I just have to take a picture. Luckily I have my camera that day. But the pictures did not turn good except for this one. What can I say, it keeps hopping on me, I can hardly keep up. It makes me smile every time I think about it.
