Ya, I know … but it was the first of these guys I photographed, so it is what it is! I’ve seen a lot more since then, and apparently had seen a lot before too, after taking the time to learn the visual differences between this and other common lizards in the area. Striped Plateau Lizard, Scoloporus virgatus.
