While hiking along Chinle Wash on day three of our San Juan River outing earlier this month, I was caught in a staredown with this common blotched lizard (Uta stansburiana). It was perched on what appears to be the pelvic bone of a large mammal. The reptile won the staring match, as I kept looking over my shoulder to see what might be stalking another mammal.
