Notes

It was mostly clear but fairly windy. Ambient temp was in the mid to high 70s and rock surface temps around 89.5 F when we found most of these herps around 11:00 - 11:45 AM. This Uta was found on a solitary rock in a field adjacent to an outcrop.

All of the Uta in this area on that day had regenerated tails. Noted potential predators seen in the same outcrop that day were Masticophis taeniatus and two adult Crotaphytus bicinctores.
