New boarders

Last night we were watching a movie - a great romantic comedy called Midnight Express...Ah, Istanbul - and were interrupted by a cacaphony of croaking and whatnot.

As an aside, our pool is now drained, but has about 4 inches of water in the deep end filled with leaves and other detritus.

We investigated today and four huge toads are now resident in the deep end of our pool. We relocated two of them to over our back wall, which I later realized was probably someone else's back wall too so really we just threw them in our neighbors yard. Sharing makes good neighbors.

Anyway, we still have two toads, so we'll see how they behave tonight.
