SATURDAY - ARIZONA
On the next day I returned to Arizona, mainly because I am a fan of their billboards.

I herped this area.

Dark Plateau Fence Lizard.

Light Plateau Fence Lizard.

Claret Cup Cactus.

A group of Yellow-bellied Bee Assassin Bugs were entertaining to watch as they ambushed bugs visiting these yellow flowers.

Collared Lizard.

Unidentified Whiptail.

Yellowspine Thistle.

Cliff Chipmunk

Later that night I saw this Gray Fox.

Mantid.

It was around 11:00PM and I hadn't come across any night time herps. I was so bored that I began taking pictures of signs that made no sense.

Then it happened - Lifer #5: Spotted Leaf-nosed Snake.

It was both odd and cool to finally see "in person" a snake I've only known from pictures for so many years. It was a great way to end the night.
