Fighting Weight

There are now three Side-blotched lizards on the front porch and as temperatures continue to warm, there will be more. Each year the front porch seems to support no more than four. Soon, there will be wars for the coveted positions. It takes time to get a Side-blotched lizard to eat off the fly swatter. Tom has elected (again) to support the old guard. While the average Side-blotched lizard in the wild lives an average of seven months, this is year three for "Who's Up." With war fast approaching it's time to get her in fighting weight.
