dang. just saw this. thanks for posting. snakes: DOR coachwhip, ground snake, and gophersnake. lizards look like Sceloporus to me, but western lizards can be tough IDs. toads: some Bufos I am not sure of. Some spadefoots, Scaphiopus. The big green one is a Sonoran desert toad, Incilius avalarius. some Ranidae frogs, a chorus frog, Pseudacris, Some sallies and a newt. Perhaps some forum members from western states will know more.

Thanks, loxo, for reminding me that these were sitting in digital limbo. I enjoy finding/photographing herps but I'm rotten at IDs.
