Syrian Spadefoot Toad Photography

Photography holidays in Bulgaria

The Syrian Spadefoot Toad is one of those species that rewards patience and a keen eye for its distinctive vertical pupils and smooth, mottled skin, and NaturesLens tailors its approach to give photographers a genuine chance of close, considered encounters rather than fleeting glimpses. Working with experienced local guides who know the toad's favoured haunts, the small group setting allows plenty of time to get low angles and work the light without disturbing the subject.
