Lizard
It wasn’t only frogs that posed for me on Saturday. This colorful lizard was very obliging also. Not being an expert on lizards, I won’t attempt to name him. I’ll just admire his beauty.
Sure looks like he is getting warm in the sun. I think they have to do that before they can get started, don't they? Not sure I got my animals right on this one.
Sharon, I will ask my son, Stuart, to see if he can chime in on the type of lizard that it is. I would trust his opinion more than Julie's when it comes to reptiles.

ReplyDeleteThey are such impressive creatures.
ReplyDeleteNice of him to pose for you and show off the shine of color on his back.
ReplyDeleteHow cool!
ReplyDeleteThat's a horned toad. We called them "horny toads" when we were young
