If you've been anywhere near the water in the canyon, you've certainly encountered hoards of mini-toads in various stages of development. Some with tails, some without. I think these (being held gently by an unnamed naturalist) are all Red-spotted toads. As with all posts, though, I welcome corrections!
No toads were eaten or otherwise harmed for this post.
