“I see you!” — Desert Spiny Lizard
. . . spent some time in Sabino Canyon this morning. I captured images of several lizards, but sometimes I find it difficult to identify these guys — example: the top photo and the one below are both od desert spiny lizards, however, the angle of the sun and environment around the lizard causes different coloring; at least to this observer.
Desert Spiny Lizard
The above lizard is easy to identify by the strips on the trail, however, I have not be able to identify the little guy below. Something tells me I should, but for now I call him “Yellow-belly.”
