I have really been listening for those male toads to start calling. Every time it rains, I have my fingers crossed. Well, I got word yesterday, during the day, that the males were really loud at Wade Park. I was so excited! I headed out there yesterday afternoon to check things out.
Well, they were calling, but... The males were hiding in the grasses and calling (along with a bullfrog and a few others) but there was no other sign of them. There were no females moving toward the ponds (SIGH!) and the males were just singing, not swimming around looking for females.
Keep your fingers crossed. I will go out again this afternoon to see if the females are heading for the ponds. If they are, I will go out to collect eggs tomorrow.
