While watching the juncos hopping around on the ground beneath the feeder, I caught a glimpse of an odd movement, odd that is, in amongst the nimble juncos. Going for a closer look I discovered this toad. I picked him up and moved him a little further under the shrubs, and he was icy cold. Most amphibians, but not all by any means, have sought out overwintering sites. These guys don't produce the anti-freeze in their bodies like woodfrogs do, and they need to find a hibernation site well below the level of ground freezing.
