SACT toad excursion

Five people, a child and a dog is standing on a field looking at something.

European fire-bellied toad (Bombina bombina) 26 May 2015 16.00-19.30.
Svartskylle (55°32’05.9″N 13°47’02.5″E)

Very windy and non-optimal, but we heard several toads (like half a
cuckoo!), enjoyed the lovely landscape and found a slope covered with early
purple orchids (Orchis mascula) on the way back.
