Backyard Safari : Lizard (1)

Alright so this is the lizard that was seen in the backyard. It kind of looks like a little Alligator.   After comparing the images that I took of it with a few different pictures of other lizards that can be found in the area, I think I've managed to identify it. I think it is a sagebrush lizard. If you look at the link below they have their own images and video footage of various examples of them.

You can compare it to the video that I took if you like. *points below at her own video* Though I will warn you ahead of time that the video is very shaky.

Happy Valentines Day!

So it's another holiday am not sure I like. But since I missed posting for mardi gras, I may as well post for you today. Yes I have an amusing valentine that i saw at the store to post for you, ready? here it comes.....

There we go.... It amused me because it is a bit of a furry one... and who would have thought to put big foot on a valentine XD.... on top of that WHO thought to use beef jerky as a valentine? It's cute and amusing on an odd silly level, but that's ok.

Here's more piggies! I'm not really a piggy bank collector, but they're interesting to look at. Personally I prefer rubber duckies. But I haven't really gotten around to finding some interesting ones to post pictures of for you. But then again, who knows what I might find to post for you!
