] Yesterday’s rains brought a cold front in, and it appears that summer has most definitely given way to a new season. Our apartment thermometer registered 65 degrees this morning, and it’s fallen off about 4 degrees since then.
Despite the rain yesterday, we nevertheless headed outdoors. With Amity as our naturalist field guide, we tromped around the habitat near Deep Springs Lake where one may find members of the endangered species, the black toad.
Binbin quickly spotted one in the gully, a small, dark creature, about 3 centimeters long. It has a prominent yellowish-whitish stripe running down its back. We trekked over to a nearby spring, looked at a few more, then made our way back to the college for deep dish pizza and hot chocolate.
