At about 9:45 AM we noosed
a leopard lizard on the south
side of the road. It was up
on a rock when first seen
but was disturbed and ran perhaps

under a creosote bush in a
mixed light and shade area
at the edge of the creosote
bush-sort of a dappled shady
area where his coloration blends

wislizenii was quite inclined to
bite but was not given an
opportunity to do so. We were
about mid way between the two
canals in the dune creosote area
