Field Notes

Description:

This is a Bahamian Curly Tailed Lizard. I tried for about 20 minutes to get a picture of all of him. I really wanted a picture of the cute little curly tail. I had to give up when it was time to get back on the bus. Oh well, maybe next time. (I really like the bokeh in this shot)

Congrats! This is the Spotting of the Day: "Curly-tailed Lizards will curl their tails like a loose watch spring in displays that attract females and drive away other males." http://facebook.com/projectnoah/posts/174465322609704 http://twitter.com/projectnoah/status/72805819397308417
