Natterjack Toads
 
Formby is also famous for the presence of natterjack toads. Formby is only one of a few sites in England where they will breed. Late in the evening the male’s distinctive song can be heard and is known locally as the ‘Bootle Organ’. In spring the males gather at the edge of shallow pools in the dune slacks and sing to attract a mate. The Sefton Coast and Countryside Service are working hard to keep these pools from growing over so that that they are ready each spring for this annual event.
