A trill that lasts anywhere from 5-30 seconds is the call of the American Toad (Bufo americanus, Anaxyrus americanus).
Specifically, the voice of each male American toad is pitched differently. In a chorus, the males alternate and overlap in a delightfully harmonious arrangement. The calls are heard over 1-2 week periods at any point during the months of March through June.
A melodic trill of 3-6 seconds is the call of the Canadian Toad (Bufo hemiophrys, Anaxyrus hemiophrys).
Specifically, the voice of the Canadian Toad is similar to that of the American Toad (B. americanus). But it is softer and less musical. The call may be heard during the day from late spring to late summer.
A buzzy trill of 3-10 seconds is the call of the Green Toad (Bufo punctatus, Anaxyrus punctatus).
Specifically, the voice of the Green Toad is similar to the sound of an electric buzzer. The nasality in its calls is likened to that of the Great Plains Narrowmouth Toad (Gastrophryne olivacea). It may be heard between March and August after heavy spring or summer rains.
A shrill trill that lasts 4-8 seconds is the call of the Southern Toad (Bufo terrestris, Anaxyrus terrestris).
Specifically, the voice of the Southern Toad is similar to that of the American Toad (B. americanus), but at a higher pitch and at a faster trill rate. The greater the number of males participating in the chorus, the louder and more dissonant the calls become. The calls are heard during the late winter and during the spring, from February to May.
"Seee-seee-seee-seee-seee-seee" is the call of the Oak Toad (Bufo quercicus, Anaxyrus quercicus).
Specifically, the voice of the Oak Toad is a loud, high-pitched peep. It is similar to the sounds of a baby chicken. But when there are enough males or when the sounds are repeated enough times, the call is likened to a squeaking wheel. The call may be heard in broad daylight during the months from April to October, especially after heavy spring, summer and autumnal rains.
A rattling trill that lasts about 1/2 second is the call of the Texas Toad (Bufo speciosus, Anaxyrus speciosus).
Specifically, the voice of the Texas Toad sounds loud and metallic. It is repeated at regular intervals. Since each individual voice is loud, a chorus can be almost deafening. The call may be heard between March and September, especially after heavy spring, summer or fall rains.
A bird-like chirp or peep is the call of the Western Toad (Bufo boreas, Anaxyrus boreas).
Specifically, the voice of the Western Toad never is made alone. A Western Toad call always is made as a chorus of males. It may be heard as early as January and as late as August.
The Black Toad (Bufo exsul, Anaxyrus exsul) has no call.
Specifically, Black Toads have no vocal sacs. They therefore tend to be mute. But they do make bird-like chirps or peeps when they come into physical contact with other male Black Toads. The sound is similar to the call of the Western Toad (B. boreas).
"Peep-waaaaaaaa" is the call of the Great Plains Narrowmouth Toad (Gastrophryne olivacea).
Specifically, the voice of the Great Plains Narrowmouth Toad is similar to that of the Eastern Narrowmouth Toad (G. carolinensis), but with a louder introductory "peep." It lasts about 1-4 seconds. The call may be heard between spring and summer, after a rain event.
