EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Thijs van den Burg, we witness the magical awakening of a Common Toad (Bufo bufo) after a long winter slumber in the enchanting Veluwe forest of The Netherlands. As the frosty grip of hibernation loosens its hold, our amphibious friend emerges with an air of rejuvenated excitement. With his full-length figure captured in perfect detail, we can almost hear him croak out a cheerful "Good morning!" to all his forest companions. This is no ordinary wake-up call; it's the start of something truly extraordinary – mating season! As spring breathes new life into nature's tapestry, these common toads embark on their annual migration known as "paddentrek". They traverse vast distances across Europe to reach their breeding grounds, creating quite a spectacle along the way. Our dapper male protagonist proudly displays his amplexus behavior - clasping onto potential mates with utmost determination. His wide-angle view reveals not only his own journey but also hints at the grandeur and beauty that awaits within this temperate wonderland. So let us celebrate this marvelous return as our resilient Bufo bufo reclaims his rightful place in the vibrant ecosystem. Welcome back to The Netherlands, dear Common Toad – may your springtime adventures be filled with love and joy!
