Notes
Artificial pond. Was told by park staff that these are Western Toads, and verified myself two years later that western toads frequent the pond, with no other frogs seen. Not sure if the tadpoles found in a similar pond (about 1.5 miles away, at the mouth of a canyon) are also western toads or red-spotted toads. At least 300 in voucher, but hundreds more were in the pond.
