frogs or toads?
We heard a loud hum coming from my mom's pond. We saw a pair of frogs
mating. But they look more like toads. Do toads mate in water? Or are they a different type of frog? Also, I didn't think toads made that noise. The male is smaller and dark brown, the female is lighter brown with speckles. |

Yes, toads mate in water just like frogs.
Their eggs will look like long strings of black beads. A good way to ID your toads is to go to google and type in 'native amphibians of - your state'. k :-) |

Toads will have bumps. Several kinds of frogs would fit your
description. Smooth skins or bumpy? Jim |

I love this site: http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.ed...frogCalls.html Lizards and frogs can be light or dark, but the call is always annoying or pleasing whichever you prefer. Regards, Hal |
