Here's a lizard. 
I'm not sure what kind of lizard it is, although I'm pretty sure it's not a Blue-Bellied Lizard. 
It was following a curb; I managed to get ahead of it and stood very still and was rewarded with it scampering up to my shoes. 
It reminds me of the lizards that Pamala Coleman Smith drew on the court cards for the suit of Wands. 
I always tell myself that nature close-ups like this will be useful for when I want to sketch, but the truth is I usually end up forgetting I have a photo resource to work from when I finally sit down with paper and pencil (or screen and mouse) to try to create an image.
