I haven't been on the forum much lately because I spend alot of time out in the desert looking for reptiles to photo. Here's some pics of a few collareds I've came across.

This male seemed interested in the camera lens and ended up climbing up my arm and doing push up.

I wonder if he could see his reflection on the lens. Still... that's a pretty ballsy lizard!

Will, you are THE KING when it comes to wild Collareds in situ!! Amazing pictures, full of action, and I have never heard of a wild lizard crawling up someone's arm like that. He obviously thinks HE is the king! LOL Thanks for a great lizard-watching experience.

I got quite a few good shots of this guy. Here's one just before he climbed up my arm.

wwwwwells May 28, 2010 08:28 PM

Here one as he went up arm. It's out of focus because I need my left hand to switch to auto but didn't want to scare him. He went up to my ear then back down and back on his rock.
