Well, its getting warm and so photographing birds is tough but the lizards have started to come out in full force.
Here is a small sampling from yesterday and today.

Tree lizard (blue belly means its male)

Thanks everyone.
We are pretty fortunate to have 16 different lizard species here and many of them are pretty easy going.
Im hoping to add a Regal Horned Lizard to my portfolio soon.

This is excellent work, Jeremy . . . really, really nice imagery.

I am surprised at how much depth of field you were able to achieve. Could you tell us what aperture you were using for most of these images?

"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Thanks Tom
That is a big compliment coming from you.
For the Collared lizards I used f11 as they're larger and usually facing me.

For the others I used f7.1 but could have gone f11.
I was at or very near min focus distance on these. That is about 6ft
on my 100-400. I use a 7d as my body. I'm pretty happy with the results but am always
trying to improve.
