Toad Rocks!!!

You can visualize different forms and shapes when you look at clouds. The same thing happens with rock formations. During our visit to Mount Abu, a hill station in Rajasthan (India), we saw a rather unusual form on a hill top when we were roaming around the beautiful nakki lake. Abu abounds in grotesquely shaped rocks which often resemble animals and human beings.


That looks familiar, we thought. We climbed up that hill to explore this unusual form. It was none other than a protrusion of a giant toad. Overhanging the Nakki lake, it is called ‘ Toad Rock‘ because of its resemblance to a gigantic toad about to leap into the water. What do you think?


It may not be the 'Shoegate' (Bush ducking the shoe), but it is pretty cool !

Call me silly, but I love these types of things, they excite me. So clearly - I think its very cool, and would definitely have gone and hoisted myself on top of toad for a pic before he dived into the water! :)

Wow SSQuo, that would have been a good sight...you on the top of the toad who is about to leap into the water!
But how would you have balanced yourself...just kidding ;-)

@Pretty Me: Yes nature is full of wonders. We can find nature's fantastic work even around us. It's just that we need to look for them ;-)
