Blue Belly Lizard Hoodies

Western fence lizard perched upon a wooden campsite post, Table Mountain Campground, San Gabriel Mountains, California. Reptile lovers will adore these unique wildlife gifts.

I don't often find the lizards in our yard smiling at me. In fact, this is the first one I think I've seen. This was taken on a warm morning in early September, 2015. This guy is a Western Fence Lizard, also known as a blue belly. In summer months we have several patrolling our yard. This one would usually climb to the top of this brick to survey the yard. :-)
