I found a toad in our garden today. It was between 2 bricks under a rose pot - in the damp area just underneath the pot's drain hole. Later I found another toad had moved in under another of my rose pots.

Obviously they were attracted there by the water which I diligently supply each day. I wonder how far they had travelled and how they had found this supply of dampness which has only been there a few weeks.

And I wonder what other kinds of life there are out there waiting quietly for something ...
