These are fairly common in my area. It always cracks me up when they start doing pushups.

Isn't that how they cool off?

I was walking across the compound at work this AM and a movement on the ground caught my eye. It was one of these guys who was about 2" long. He was a cutie.

Actually, they like to sun themselves and use the rocks for heat.

All I have to say is I am fascinated by natures camouflage, very cool!

these things were all over when I was stationed in Fallon Nevada had one climb into my gear bag and didn't come out until I was at the house it was something to see how fast they are and how well they evaded my kids she finally caught it though and safely released it back in the wild after much begging to keep it as a pet

LOL

When I was about 15, I kept a tarantula that did the same thing. My mother wouldn't go into my room since it was in a terrarium on my dresser. If I'd known it would have that affect, I'd have collected one on purpose many years before!

Most of the lizards around here are protected by law, don't EVEN get caught with a horned toad, you'll do more time than some people who kill their children.
