Thank you! He is; I'd heard about them before we went to Jordan and it was pretty much my sole goal to see one.

Amazing colors!

Sorry, Johan Heyns, I initially saw the wrong reference and therefore put the wrong spotting.
Johan Heyns
Please see link to another spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/83336019 which is why I questioned the ID. The reference you included is for a Pseudotrapelus sinaitus, common name Sinai Agama, therefore the scientific name you added to the spotting is not correct.
Johan Heyns
I'm not too sure of your ID. Can you please add a reference confirming the ID?
