Rik, At first I thought the debris on it's nose was spider webs and as I look more closely it looks like it might be diatomaceous earth from the mess I left after recharging the pool filter. I'll poke around in the area tomorrow. I had never seen the blue and turquoise scales before. They are fascin...

Western Fence Lizard
This Western Fence Lizard doesn't begin to compare to Kurt's Malaysian lizards, but it's all I have.

Wow, Only three guesses out of 66 views. Pau wins the prize for the closest answer. It is the surface of the "stalk" of a Agave tequilana or blue agave. The plant is at least 30 years old and I just noticed the (12 foot tall) stalk. The stalk is about 8 inches in diameter near the base. The plant it...

Need help with Nikon D7100 Mirror Lockup and Flash
