Marvin at 2 weeks - he just got his hind legs.
Marvin at 3 weeks - he actually grew his front legs while being transported to my mom's 4 hours away so she could watch him (and our dog) while we were in Oklahoma and Vegas. My mom said his tail was practically gone and he was sitting out of the water by the next day!
Marvin at 4 weeks. Can you believe how tiny he is??? He's about the size of a fly - maybe smaller. We released him back near his pond the day after this photo was taken. What a great experience watching this little tadpole change into a little toad!

Oh, he is cute! How neat that you got to see him grow up like that!
Hi! Thanks for stopping by my blog. You have a very neat one here, love the nature pics. My kids were impressed with Marvin's transformation. :)
Awww! Marvin is so cute! Next year maybe you'll find some of Marvin's progeny in your back yard. Never know... could happen!
What a great project!! I can't wait to do the same here!
Thanks for your comments on my blog. Your nature photography is wonderful! I love close-ups like that.

Marvin definitely looks like a toad to me!
It truly is a priceless experience to watch them change.
