Notes

Found under a Rock, one of a few found here..

Picture taken 20 feet from each other.

this is the first recorded Eastern Collard Lizard in Russel county in the NAFHA database..

This lizard was AMAZING... He decided to attack after being uncovered under the rock.. This is the only time I have been attacked
by a lizard, that "wasn't" bluffing.. He actually jumped up at me several times, and pursued me for 2 minutes and 20 feet..

What a lizard or should I call him T-REX. I have NEVER admired an reptile as much as I admired this guy.. I LOVED his spirit.. So much like my own, that it was a spiritual experience with this guy... I laughed, than smiled when I relized he was 100% serious and ready to
prove it.. He never turned and ran at anytime..

Amazing personality, and I am lucky to have found him, even if he doesn't feel the same way. LOL


Found in old Cattle Pasture..
