American Toad (male mating call)

An American Toad spotted (seen and heard) along the boardwalk that goes through the central wetland area at Huntley Meadows Park. The preceding photo is an outtake from a YouTube video featuring several examples of the male mating call. The video clips were recorded on a very windy day. Apple iMovie was used to edit the video: image stabilization was applied to all of the raw video clips; the audio waveforms were adjusted to decrease the wind noise and amplify the mating calls.
