We quit looking for lizards at 1530.
Most of the day was spent driving
along the roads in Palm Springs
Palmoresca. Vegetation is becoming rather
lush there again with all the water
they are using to keep the sand from
blowing. We saw a total of 50 Uma
inornata (we caught 16 of them) and 1
juvenile Diposaurus dorsalis. I was
surprised to see Dipsosaurs out so
early in the season. This is the only
one I have ever seen active in February.
