i seem to remember seeing toads all my life even in Orange county
but always in small qty like two or three a year.
i went up to the road and could only find one that had been pancaked
saw several on the way up the hill
speaking of Ants, i have always wondered what happens to them each winter
there are maybe a 100 colonies on the gravel bar and they are there every year
what happens them when the river rises ? how do they survive ?
i do not have any to speak of 30 feet above the river
