The toad patrol continues to find and move toads across Coombe Road. To date this spring, 17/03/21, we have moved 376 toads, with the added bonus of 74 newts. Unfortunately we also found 14 squashed toads and 9 squashed newts, but these numbers would be much higher if the patrols were not out.

One of the things we have been seeing recently is that a number of the female toads have a male toads on their back ready for action! The picture with this post show one such couple.
