Actually, I found the female first in April while basking. I almost missed seeing her, I walked right above her on top of a huge decomposing granite boulder. She had a large meal in her gut, which I am sure was a Sceloporus ssp. The male I found a couple months later while cruising around after a nice late summer rain. I see about 4-7 average a year here while herping, but this year was about 14! All of the other sightings were of them cramed down in the cracks of boulders. A good reason to bring a skinny flashlight with ya. :D
These are my very first collected pyros, as I know I can find them out and about while herping. I just cannot wait for some good breeding this spring!

Gotta move down south! Argh!!! Oh wait, that'll mean I'll leave my beloved bullsnakes behind. Damn!

Sweet stuff Steve!
