On Saturday I went to Key Biscayne to look for mangrove propagules for my hydrogen fractionation research. I decided to go look for a brown basilisk lizard while I was out there. I was rewarded with a nice look at 2 different males. They are a rather interesting lizard with large scales on the back of their head like the dinosaurs: hadrosaurids. The lizards are best known for their ability to run on water. The tap the water so fast that upwelling that occurs keeps them on top of the water. I saw seen them run on water twice. I got a picture of it, but the picture quality is very poor.
Corinthian and Vitruvius ran on Saturday. I talk about the races on my horse news page.
I am looking forward to seeing the family and Arizona in a few days! I cannot believe that I'll be in Arizona in 3 days. Unfortunately the stay will not be long, only 4 days.
