I saw this little guy desperately trying to hop through the seemingly jungle size grass. It looks to be a young toad of some kind, not yet filled out and with small bumps, which I hadn't seen until I saw the pics.

There was the one with the reddish-brown tinge I posted earlier, the bumps on this baby look a little red, I am guessing it's the young of that one. It was about an inch long but was really struggling to get anywhere, it couldn't jump at all really but sort of flopped along!

The body has that deep, square edged shape, and the eye lids are a bright gold colour. I had a frog with that, but the mature toad does look to have a gold eyelid, and frogs are not normally bumpy.
