Zebra-tailed Lizard On The Beach
One of the many Zebra-tailed lizards running around a popular beach in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Unlike about every other situation where we were wading through beach dune sands looking for lizards and snakes, this spot had a guy with a cooler selling ice-cold cervesas. This needs to be normalized in herpetology.
Regal Horned Lizard
This Regal Horned Lizard decided that basking right in the middle of a busy road was a good idea. It wasn’t. But from the look on its face, my moving it to an anthill a short distance away was not appreciated.
Guatemalan Beaded Lizard
Guatemalan Beaded Lizard found within the small last range of this highly endangered species.
South Indian Rock Agama
This brightly colored South Indian Rock Agama was among the first reptiles we saw on a visit to India. For scale, it’s about the size of a bearded dragon, which most people are familiar with.
Collared Tree Runner from Peru
Collared Tree Runner from Peru, found sleeping in low branches on a night time walk through the rainforest.
Chichuahuan Whiptail
A Chihuahuan Whiptail from Greenlee County. This is one of several species of whiptail lizards in the area, darting around in grass and rocks as we walked the area looking for rattlesnakes.
Common Stream-side Lizard
Like a lizard with the body of a crocodilian – a Common Stream-side Lizard found in Peru a few years ago.
Eastern Collared Lizard
A little dinosaur warming in the morning sun. The Eastern Collared Lizard is one of the most colorful lizards in Arizona and typically presents itself dramatically against open rock and high perches, making it also one of the most photogenic. This one watched us searching for Prairie Rattlesnakes and darted under cover when it decided we weren’t leaving.
