This was the big exciting find from my day #herping in Mojave National Preserve, my first chuckwalla! Wow they do live in the desert areas I'm used to hiking in, I've never actually seen one. After finding six other species of lizards in the same morning, I decided this would be my day to find a chuckwalla.
As I was driving through the Preserve, I spotted a low, basalt escarpment above a dry wash. Everything I'd read suggested that was perfect chuckwalla habitat.
I walked a quarter mile across the desert and then down to one end of the escarpment then all the way back up to the other and then on the way back down, I saw it! This handsome critter was surveying its domain from its perch about 15 feet up the cliff. Conveniently, it posed for a while before dipping out of sight.

Today's #LizardReport is a little different because I am on a road trip. Camped out at Kelso Dunes and spent the morning herping in Mojave National Preserve.
7 species of lizard, 4 of them "life lizards"! Here's the first, Phrynosoma platyrhinos, a horned lizard. Look at that camo! They're sooo cute!
(It's intermission at a live theater performance, so I'll post more later or tomorrow in this thread.)

We accidentally created a mutant cross-pollinated squash. I'd heard of this, and perhaps it's happened to us before with the fodder squashes from last season (those were dreadful to me but the pigs didn't care, I thought it was more about where they were grown than their genetics), but this time it's... delightful. Most likely one of our ronde de nice summer squashes crossed with delicata, since those are what happened to grow nearby, and it's sweet like a delicata winter squash but with the texture of a summer squash. It also might be happening with another, since the "zuchinni" growing nearby is, uh, well, it looks like nothing I've seen before. I'll post a thread of mutant squash pictures soon.
In my defense, I didn't think any of this was going to grow, since these seeds were all so old. I let my children seed blast this basin thinking "well, we'll get what we get!" and then nothing germinated for three weeks so I figured it was a lost cause. Then we manured it to prepare it for the next season and, well, now we have six foot long squash vines and more fruit than we're going to know what to do with when it comes time to harvest them. Happy accidents!

Famous for its trees, Joshua Tree National Park is also a granite mecca attracting climbers from around the world. Spending a couple of days in this desert is a humbling experience. Sunsets are often magical here, especially when clouds, rocks, and desert light work together.
