I discovered this concrete relief on a sound barrier by chance during a walk, somewhat hidden between an industrial area and railway tracks. After that, I was able to find out that it was a work of art called Krötenwanderung (Toad Migration) by the artist Thomas Torkler.

I mean no disrespect to prior toads OK? But this lady has to be the cutest toad I've seen all summer. Looked and felt like a little ball of dough. VERY CUTE FACE! Tiny, unimpressive hops & no reaction to being lifted for pictures. Moved her off the trail and she just sat there. Amazing specimen & perfect in every way. I'll remember her forever

Here’s a Colorado river toad [also known as the Sonoran desert toad, Incilius alvarius] with Nikes for scale. These robust toads are the largest species of toad native to the United States, regularly exceeding 7 inches in length. They possess potent toxins that can cause paralysis and even death.

Here we see a very special green frog [Lithobates clamitans, formerly Rana clamitans] displaying unusual blue coloration instead of the typical green. This mutation is apparently relatively common in the area of Michigan where this specimen was found. Image by James Harding.

Here we see a captive-raised green frog [Lithobates clamitans; formerly Rana clamitans] displaying partial leucism. Often mistaken for albinism, leucistic frogs are only lacking pigment in certain areas, and still retain pigment in their eyes. This individual was found as a tadpole in a pond in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. Images by Daniel F. Hughes.

A silvery checkerspot butterfly [Chlosyne nycteis] perched atop an American toad [Anaxyrus americanus] in Frederick, Maryland. Butterflies have been observed drinking the tears of other animals; that is perhaps what the specimen here is doing. Image by Andy Wilson.
