Notes

This specimen was caught by hand in our front yard. It was the first fence lizard seen after we had noosed one in our yard about a month ago. Seems like they really don't like being noosed (not too surprising). So, we've stopped noosing and won't be catching any more by hand either. The one pictured was sort of an accident. It was trapped inside a sprinkler coverbox when we turned the box over.
