I'm pretty sure thats two males fighting over a female.

[adamanteus]

That's right. It's the famous 'combat dance'. There'll be a female hidden in the undergrowth somewhere nearby.

Amazing pictures, Tina and Steve!!
Add me to the list of those who'd like to see that live.:cool:

[Stefan-A]

Very nice. :)

It's still going to be a few weeks before the herping season starts here. Hopefully I'll still be in this town when the toads take to the streets. :D

Those are some really nice pics. I'd love to see that to 'in real life' :)

[guidofatherof5]

Venom or not. I think they are beautiful and would love to have one under the right conditions. T.radix they are not.

[Stefan-A]

They seem a bit noisy, though.

[gregmonsta]

Simply amazing :D
