What are you looking at

We have a good crop of horned lizards (horny toads, to Texans!) at CSAC this year. This little guy will strike a pose like this whenever you get near him. He's about 6 inches long, tip of tail to nose.

Pentax istDS DSLR, available light just prior to sunset, handheld with 50-200mm DA lens at about 100mm, distance to lizard about one meter. This is about a 30% crop, I think.
