Two spotted on wall about 50' from each other - one captured and vouchered close up in order to demonstrate back scalation. Fence lizards also seen.
Introduced population of tree lizards, possibly brought from the Colorado River area on boats used in recreation boating by the residents. Population was first discovered by Jim Bass in 2008.
