What I've Been Doing

I responded to an earlier post that was basically asking everyone how they are staying focused during this self isolation. I added a few photos which I hadn't ever posted in the Gallery before because either A), they were taken with my phone camera or B), they weren't "artsy". That said, the following photos fall under those categories and are examples of how I'm filling my time in self isolation.
Only 10 photos allowed, so I can't bore you with photos of the Lapus Lazuli, Wild Flowers, Painted garden gourd, metal detecting "treasures", etc..

Had to look up "Roundtail Horned Lizard", never have seen one. Wiki said they live in the western desert states, not in Texas where I've been most of my life.

You are right, especially here in this forum.
I never heard the real term until now that I can remember.
They also squirt blood from their eye sockets when threatened.
PS very good shots reminding me of home.

They have been found in Western Texas, bordering Southern New Mexico.
