well if that aint just the cutest little feller i've seen in a long time. that is a great pic H. you can really tell thats a juvenile. love those little critters.
I've heard them called horned toads, horned lizards, and what we call them around here, horny toads. Used to be thick as fleas. They're making a comeback but it's slow. Their pop-u-lation (snuck it past censor check this time), grows and wanes over time. Seems during drought they do the best. Guess they don't like wet years.

Now there is a snippet of information of high value....I have been AVOIDING using that word for fear it would appear to be a horrible ***** word...It's the best word to use when talking about a group of Indians ( Or Horned Toads )
On the Texas Parks and Wildlife website, there is a lot of information on the Horned Lizards, and there are forms to fill out and mail in if you want to report sightings of Horned Lizards so that they can be tracked and monitored. Do not know if we can post website addresses here...
So far here at the ranch we got just enough rain to cut the dust and that was Thursday night. Some parts of Junction got more but it seems always to go arround us
