I listened to a couple of red spotted toad samples at

http://www-astro.physics.ox.ac.uk/~erik/toad/frames_world.html#bpu

and I noted that the toads start below pitch and glide up. I went 
back to my Joshua Tree recordings and heard the glides there, so it 
-was- toads there. But the trills at Lava Beds don't have a glide, so 
my assumption was incorrect.

Thanks John, Walt (off list), and Will.

I got that complete, but it wouldn't open for me.
