I was surprised to see how limited your amphibian fauna are in your country, but it helped in making a quick ID. You have pictured two common toads, Bufo bufo. Nice capture of them in amplexus.

I think those might be referred to as "horny toads". ;)

Thank you. Amphbians aren't realy my thing, maybe it's because we don't have many of them over here.
