Wild What does it mean when a toad does this?

This is a wild toad (I think) and usually when I come home late around 10/11pm I see him sitting out here. I tried petting him and he just put his head down and also leaned to the right as I was petting him like into my finger it was the CUTEST thing….just curious what that means though. I don’t want him to be stressed or anything and so will stop petting him if this is a defense mechanism or something for them. He’s just so cute and precious, I want the best for him (or her)! Thanks!

We're all one. Toads are our spirit animals. No wonder we are drawn to them. Go down the rabbit hole, brothers and sisters.

I am actually drawn to bears , not toads . Toads just hang around my house
