Since our Desert Senna’s been blooming again lately & our Desert Milkweeds look like they're forming new flower buds, this seemed like a good time to post this Perpetual Journal page of mine, from a few months ago. And YES! 🥰We’ve seen a Gila Monster more than once this year!!!

Honored to have a Gila Monster (Heloderma suspectum) visit our Tucson, AZ USA yard! They are such beautiful creatures! My photo ©Carl R. Englander.

Amazing gila monster mural in downtown Phoenix. I'm here for the Entomological Society conference! #EntSoc24 #GilaMonster #mural #arizona

I've been telling people on the trip "I really want to find or at least see a Gila monster! This morning, the first formal documentation day, on the drive up, the people in the lead vehicle found one right in the 4WD road!

The skin is hard and bumpy. Tom Van Devender is holding it, my hand "petting" it in the second photo.

They deliver an **extremely** painful bite. They don't inject venom like rattlesnakes, but latch on and chew saliva into your skin.

Our Desert Senna seems to love our hot Tucson, AZ weather & has been blooming almost continuously since late May, despite temps over 100°F.! Here's my Perpetual Journal art of it & a Gila Monster I saw the same week in 2023!

@CarlEnglander “Honored” is exactly the right word to describe getting to see a Gila Monster! They are soooo beautiful!!! 🥰 💯

Honored to see a Gila Monster in our Tucson, AZ USA yard today! This one was a different individual from the last one we saw. Comparing photographs, we noted the different patterns on the two venomous lizards!

I love creating art in series so in today’s blog post I go behind-the-scenes of 5 of my art series to show how I create a consistent look-and-feel for each.

We saw our first Gila Monster 😍 of the season in our yard last week! They are soooo beautiful (so of course I had to paint it for my Perpetual Journal)!!! 🥰 Yes, they’re venomous, but they don’t attack humans unless really provoked.
