Love is in the Air... umm... Pond. Love is in the Pond.

With apologies to Alfred, Lord Tennyson...

"In the Spring a young Toad's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love."

Traditionally May Day was a celebration of Spring, the growing season, and fertility.  Yesterday, I found a pond full of American Toads (Bufo americanus) doing their best to celebrate May Day in a traditional way.
