Arizona Trip with lots of pics
Hi,

Here's a bunch of pics from my trip to AZ in April. It was a blast but if I could go again I would go in July or August (road cruising is way better then).

The first find of the trip, a western diamondback.



a differt one...


Here's some gopher snakes. These were common.




A couple long-nosed snakes we found on the rads at night....also pretty common.



a western patch-nosed snake



a western black-necked gartersnake



A chuckwalla from South Mountain, Pheonix.



Urosaurus ornatus


Scoloporus magister


un-id'd lizard


regal horned lizard



various other pics....




my brothers pic....he was so proud of this one hmmmmm


a male blue-throated hummingbird (a SE Arizona specialty)


gambel's quail (common)


vermillion flycatcher


long-billed curlew (an uncommon species there)


Vaejovis spinigerous (stripe-tailed scorpion)


a habitat shot


sunset....


Hope you enjoyed them.

Russ

Lots of patience. I found a few under junk as it was getting dark so they were a little easier. The chuckwalla was a miracle in my opinion, those things are rediculously hard to photograph/catch. I'm glad you enjoyed the pics...
