Horny toad

 Randa noticed this Horned Lizard that was hiding in a cactus near our outdoor clothes line.  He didn't move while we were photographing it, but he was gone when we checked up on him later.  He was about 2 1/2 inches long without a tail.  I have read that they will shed their tail if a predator has a hold of it.  A new tail will regrow over time.  This photo is slightly blown up to show him better.  We were excited to see it.
