With fall in the air,
lizards will be out of sight
only to be seen on a rock
in the desert sunlight —
it’s the natural
order of things.

This Lizard of Many Colors Leave a comment

Eastern Collared Lizard — Image by kenne

Hot, dry, brown and gray
Not this colorful lizard
Posing on a rock.

Maybe she will see
Him in his many colors
Posing on a rock.

Watch him arch his back
Puff out his sides to look big
As he does push-ups.

Another Sign Of Spring Leave a comment

Eastern Collared Lizard — Image by kenne

Another sign of spring in the desert are our reptile friends, most scurrying about making it difficult to photograph. But not the eastern collared lizard (Crotaphytus collaris), who like to pose for you on a nearby rock.

Welcome back, my friend — it is spring time in the Sonoran desert.

Another sign of spring in the desert are our reptile friends, most scurrying about making it difficult to photograph. But not the eastern collared lizard (Crotaphytus collaris), who like to pose for you on a nearby rock. I have other photos of the lizard from earlier springs, and could have easily used one of them, but this image was taken a week ago.

Welcome back, my friend — it is spring time in the Sonoran desert.

Can I Pose For You? 3 comments

Eastern Collared Lizard — Images by kenne

The Eastern Collared Lizard is a beautiful lizard — the most beautiful in southern Arizona.
This lizard was first spotted in the brush along the Douglas Springs Trail,
then climbed up on a near-by rock to pose for me.
