Spiky Sensation
Horned Lizards can be tricky to find, but on the first day, two were seen basking on blacktop pavement. A total of seven Horned Lizards were see on the trip - more than any of my previous trips to the desert. Click here to see another photo 
| It's a Wash I hiked in this wash in the Canyon. 
Black Lizard
| Some of the Great Basin Fence Lizards were very dark in color. 
Orange Globe Mallow
| A wet winter resulted in a lot of desert greenery and flowers. 
Arizona Evening
| Later that night I did some roadhunting for snakes in the Grand Canyon State. 
Desert Digger
| The first snake I found was this Longnose - its pointed snout enables it to burrow. 
King Diamond
| Due to its large size, toxic venom and bold nature, the Western Diamondback Rattlesnake is widely considered to be the most dangerous snake in the United States. This is the first one I've ever encountered in the field. Click here to see another photo 
King Me
| Previously I've found California Kingsnakes in Nevada and California - this is the first one I've ever come across in Arizona. Click here to see another photo 
Doubletime
| This second Longnose Snake was a bit larger than the first...and a little camera-shy. 
Mojave Madness
| The final find of the night was this yearling Mojave Rattlesnake. |
