Toad goes a courting?

I was just in time to catch this toad marching across our back lawn this morning. He looked as if he was on a mission and I had trouble getting him into focus he was so fast!! We get the odd frog but this is the first toad I have managed to get a photo of!!
A bit better on black

Thank you for all your lovely comments and favs on yesterday's photo.

So much texture in this toad's skin. Great close-up, even an action shot!
