lizard friend



so this little guy was constantly on our front porch last summer, we figure he lived there. i don't know if you can tell, but his body as well as his tail are severely deformed (it's hard to catch a lizard in a photo if he doesn't want to be there). his back has big bumps, as well as side-to-side lumps. anyhow, i figured he'd be a gonner over the winter, cause he sure doesn't look too healthy, but he was back today, sunning himself on our porch, and windowsill, so i thought i'd set him up online for all to see. he's my favorite. you've got to admire such crookedness. by the way, for the curious, he still seems to be as fast as a normal lizard. i guess that's how he gets by.

oh my, that sure is a crooked tail! is that from being caught in the door, i wonder?
