Tried really hard to get this lizard in focus before it scattered away. Unfortunately all I got in focus was it's butt.
Possibly a Common Side-blotched Lizard (Uta stansburiana), White Rocks Loop Trail, Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Nevada
A western fence lizard (Sceloporus occidentalis) sunning itself on a cinderblock. A very patient one, at that. Most of them don't let me get this close!
Sceloporus occidentalis occidentalis.
Credit for identification goes to Gary Nafis, who made the determination based off of range maps on his site, www.californiaherps.com, an indispensable resource for California herpetology enthusiasts. He stated that more research needs to be done into populations of Fence Lizards for more definitive identifications, especially in the contact zones between the various populations.

I thought this lizard was dead. I happened upon it and it didn't move even though I was only a few feet away. I didn't want to take a picture of it because I don't like taking pictures of dead animals. But as I passed over it one of its legs twitched.
I then decided it was only dying and I took a couple pictures. Denes thought that it would be better if he moved it to the shade so it could die more peacefully. When he went towards it with a stick it ran off.
