This was a pretty big one who was hanging out on our acacia tree. I love the colors and the spiny scales. I live in Arizona but I don't often see guys (or gals) like this. The lizard measured maybe eight inches long, possibly a little less.
I can tell he's lost his tail and is in the process of regrowing it.
So, does anyone know who this Tucson beauty might be?
