The Plague of Frogs

Well, this may not be the real plague of frogs that God brought on Egypt but it does remind me of it.  Since the good rain a couple of weeks ago, we have had numerous little frogs or toads (not sure which).  Now, when I say numerous...I mean hundreds.  They are in our yard, flowerbeds, in the garage, on the driveway, and out in the street.  This is definitely a population explosion. 

Susan says she feels like a murderer every time she backs out of the garage and driveway. 

They're kind of cute and don't make a sound. They are about 3/4 of an inch long.  Check out the picture and video. 


Yep, each little dark spot is a little toad.  I found it interesting that they were all going the same direction. Also, since I couldn't find these in my Field Guides, I am assuming they are all young and not adults yet.  This probably explains, why they are not croaking.  Just guessing!
