Common toad/vanlig padda. Värmland, Sweden (May 25, 2017).

Bufo bufo — common toad a.k.a. European toad

Spring Peeper: Like several other species of Northern frog, (and specifically, a few other species of Pseudacris,) spring peepers have the ability to freeze in the winter and thaw out in the spring. These frogs can survive internal temperatures as low as -8°C (17°F). As their common name suggests, they’re one of the first species to emerge after the thaw, with their calls resembling a chick’s peep. Females will select a male based on the strength and frequency of the call, typically preferring lower frequencies. Sometimes, a male will elect not to call altogether and instead wait on the outskirts of the chorus, ambushing females drawn in by the others.

Common Toad: This toad, found mostly throughout Europe, is a member of a species complex along with B. japonicus and B spinosus; they are unable to be clearly taxonomically separated, but are still considered to be different species at the moment. After emerging from overwintering holes in the spring, they tend to migrate back to their spawning pool to breed, using olfactory, magnetic, and visual cues to find their way. As a defence mechanism, they produce a foul-tasting toxin to deter predators, although neither crows, (who have been spotted plucking out their livers,) nor grass snakes tend to be deterred. Once, in Scotland, one was found 99 m (324 ft) deep underwater!

Yep!
