4/29/07 Found a tiny grey/silver toad on a mini-windmill in garden today.
Have never seen a "grey" toad before. We are in West Central
Wisconsin. I see a lot of the small brown tree toads around here.
Is this a species or a mutation? Possibly an albino? Wish to heck
I would have taken a picture of it. Very pretty.

This is a western toad, Bufo boreas. I took the picture at about 5000' near Diamond Peak, in Lane County Oregon, just about a year ago. I don't know what the brown growth on the left of its head is, but it looked normal at the time.
