Fowler’s Toad

You know how they say not to lick toads? Well don't lick this one: it secretes a noxious compound from the warts on its back which can be lethal to small mammals. AND this toad also sometimes plays dead.

Red-eyed Vireo

This bird serenades me for HOURS when I'm working in my garden. Now I understand why... it's known as a tireless songster.
