After another balmy winter's day at NWT Holme Dunes I made another
search for a "late" natterjack toad just after 9pm. Temperature was
around nine degrees so really wasn't expecting to find anything, but
just after reaching the ridge to the beach in the pines I came across
this natterjack, running around actively, although a similar size to the
animal I saw a few days ago it felt to me to be much fatter and
healthier looking.
I then carried along the footpath and back around the west end of the pines and over the established grey dune, really not expecting to find another one, but doing just that! Sat on a small mound of sand as if waiting for the next meal to crawl to him (or her).
