It does go to show how even the most unassuming parts of the garden can provide important habitat though. I hope he found his Trilliums!Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-5430249991198084642012-03-22T21:05:43.275-04:002012-03-22T21:05:43.275-04:00Karin, Great post!

I have annoyed a few myself, but I never see toads around here. I believe they must be somewhere, though. I remember in PA they were all over the place.Donna@GWGThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14170802942464666382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335626764384885870.post-59845519638763668052012-03-21T21:26:39.075-04:002012-03-21T21:26:39.075-04:00Aw, he looks like a little old man!
