I’m not sure of the exact species of this handsome little guy, but I photographed him/her while in the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge last week. From a bit of research, I think it might be the great plains toad. Regardless, I’ve always been a big fan of toads. Not quite to the stature of a proper frog, but with an admirable underdog quality about them. Nikon D810 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 400, f/4 at 1/4000th of a second
Reminds me of Harold, who guarded our back door while Mom and Dad and I lived in Richmond MO for five years. Never had much of a problem with bugs out there as long as he was on the job!
