The City Daily Photo community are running a set of 'national days' to celebrate the various nations we all come from. They're a bit like theme day, only they fall in the middle of the month. Today is St George's Day - for England. St George was famous for slaying the dragon, and recently we had an addition to our menagerie - fire belly toads. They look like dragons to me! I myself have some tenuous connexion with Old Blighty as my Mom is a British colonial (The Bahamas). She taught me to spell properly :-)

ReplyDeleteI think it looks like a dragon if I squint ;)
ReplyDeleteNice close-up!
The toads look like some of those deadly poisonous ones - far scarier than any old dragon!

They apparently get quite poisonous in the wild; something they eat. Kept as pets, they can only manage onion cutting-like tears if you rub your eyes after handling them.
