Please can you go through your spottings & update the ones that other users have taken the time to identify for you with the correct common & scientific names & a reference link so that they can be removed from the "unknowns" list. Having the correct information is really important to us so that we can use the data for conservation & research. You cab read why here http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/28702494728/whats-in-a-name

the second one is an interesting shot, to say the least.

That's right- a Chuckwalla! I've seen another one similar but with bright yellows in the same area. Have you noticed the second pic-- he's on a bathroom break! :)

I'd love to do some herping out west and gets some shots of one of these guys. Well done.
