Dad and i
The frog (toad) prince in my garden back home sure has a better story to tell than i do now. On Sunday night, i went out to check on the toad. It was still nicely nestled in THE flower pot. I didnt want to miss it leaving the pot this time, because i did yesterday. So, my dad and i waited patiently by the pot for the toad to leave. The sky grew darker and darker. And there were slight movements from the toad. We waited and waited, as if we were waiting for the cow to come home.
Then, as we were kinda running late, and that fella seemed to have noticed us in the first place(making it a little uncomfortable and intimidated), we decided to carry out Plan B. I guarded the toad while my dad went to get some talcum powder. We sprinkled the whole area around the pot with powder and went indoors to give the toad some private moments before taking flight. When we came out, the toad had left the pot and left slight frog paw marks. And i found it under the fence. It then leaped inside the drain, where my dad spotted a smaller unrelated one. (They must be meeting for a pre-valentine date) We then took a pic of the both of them.
Presenting the drain and the 2 toads, Bufo melanostictus
To spot the toads, strain hard. Both the toads are directly in front of the slippers. The smaller on on the left while the bigger one on the right.
Ps:Definitely miss my homies.
Will be meeting Mr. Siva for a frogging session tmr after Biochem tuts.
