<p>I'm starting to favor these lizards over the Chuckwalla. They exhibit &quot;freeze behavior&quot;, when threatened, meaning they just stop and don't move hoping you haven't seen them. I spent about three minutes shooting this one from my truck window. I was sure that if I opened the door to try to get some better shots, it'd bolt.</p>
