Well i was out all weekend in both the desert and the coast. The first place i stopped off at were a couple board spots. The first board spot produced no snakes but as we were hiking back this little guy ran across our path. He was the first one i have ever seen so i was stoked.
That was amazing so we desided to stop off at another spot. As we were hiking up there was a 16 inch long brick red male alligator lizard. Both my dad and i fell down trying to catch him but he got away. Another lizard that got away that was spotted by my dad was a gilberts skink. We found one snake at this spot that will be talked about in the next post.
Well we were having alright luck so we stopped of at another friends board spot. Found two snakes with a sad history.
Then we went to the desert. The only lizard found road crusing was a pretty banded gecko found by the car in front of us. The nice man let us photograph it.
After that we went to a spot a camped for the night. In the morning we walked around the area and found two fringe-toed lizards. Yes, finally got a picture. I'm sorry for the little guy's habit. :rofl: Man i hate finding so much trash out there.
Well no flat-tails were found maybe next time. We went to another place to look for more horned lizards. We found just about every other lizard but horned lizards.
So there were small lizards found like this.
Others were large found like this.
Some were even found like this.
So as you probably know the lizards that were found were Iguanas, Zebra-tails, side-blotched and whiptails. Here are some close ups.
We also observed some new behaviors that both the Zebra-tails and the Iguanas did.
The Zebras did push ups and flattened there body and the Iguanas would puff up there back, arch it then flatten out. I got one picture of a zebra doing push ups.
The last lizard that was found was a baby Chuck that was in the weirdest habitat. Well he was on the flats in a large rock pile. I know they live in rocks but there was no hillside around.
Snakes are to come. Hope you like all the pictures.
