Reptiles and Amphibians
Mark says we may as well do this gallery. It's a natural progression since we already have collections of flowers, birds, and bugs. I think so too.
Our focus with this gallery is to show the creatures that we have stumbled upon in the wild. No zoo or shop shots for us. Or you. We may not see many creatures in this category, but we appreciate them none the less.
Herping is the act of searching for reptiles and amphibians. The term herping comes from "herptile", composed of Greek herpeton and Latin reptile, both meaning "to creep".
Along with our other enjoyments we count herping among them - enjoy.

Woodhouse's Toad, (Bufo woodhousii)
Big Daddy bufo. Obviously more er ... mature ... than the subject in the previous frame. It wasn't long after we were carefully avoiding stepping on throngs of baby bufos that we saw this hearty bufo on an embankment while heading up to our car. Bada-boom!
This specimen could also be a subspecies of Woodhouse's Toad, the 'Rocky Mountain toad - (Bufo woodhousii woodhousii)' One distinguishing feature is a light middorsal stripe. Certainly present here.
