P8167094 Toad? Frog? Spadefoot?

Around Work, Texas Canyon, Dragoon, AZ

My daughter Amy borrowed my camera to go take pictures of this tiny little amphibian her hubby spotted
near the Art Gallery at work.
I've looked in four books and am unable to i.d. it. Anyone know?

Fantastic series of shots! What a little beauty. Not something we get up this way, so not sure of the ID. V

Looks like a Canyon Tree Frog to me. We have hundreds of them near Marijilda Creek up on Mt. Graham. Tiny little things.

Hard to tell if it's one of toads listed because I don't see a horizontal stripe in the eye or a swollen gland behind the eye, although it could be there. Hard to see the toes clearly, which would help with the ID, too.

I have learned to trust Tom's ability to identify critters in our neck of the woods. Red-spotted toad it is...

Definitely a toad. Most likely a spadefoot. Love the timing on that bottom shoot. Cool pics.

Not a clue. Surprised they occur in AZ.
