    He was probably hoping to be invisible!

    I was watering some plants in our yard in Scottsdale on Sunday and was startled by a colorful lizard that looked just like this guy. The colorful scales on his back are a treat.

    I hope he was smaller than he looks in the picture!

    The camouflage is very effective for this shy animal.

    I'm always a bit spooked when crawly things are above my head. Great shot!

    I would like to try to stay in his skin, for one day. It will not be much "thinking", I'm afraid.

    That looks like one of those deadly Gila Monsters! Yikes! Look at the face. It could be a politician!
