Hunter

Sabino Canyon

A medium sized Gila Monster (approx. 20 inches) out hunting for a meal.
Quail eggs are on the top of the menu this time of year.

Here's a pic of him in his Easter egg hunting outfit:

I read up on them. Very neat you found one of these.

I thought these were only in Florida. Is this typical to find? Released pet?

Great sighing and capture, Sam! Sightings of these guys seem to be very rare. ~

Wonderful capture of a not so pretty subject. Well done, Sam.

Cool captures with the low perspective. I especially like the Easter outfit.

Way to cool Sam, always a treat to see a Gila Monster.

From all I hear of these critters I would rather they hunt Quail eggs than me...
Nice image, he looks meaner than a cold northern bearing sub zero temps...
