Some good shots Peter.. But I do like the mouse shots.. It does get kind of lonely up there. :lol: Will you be at Nellis next week? I'm flying in on Wed and sticking around till the next Thursday, maybe I'll see you there if you are.

Great set!

I think the mouse is a Canyon Mouse, Peromyscus crinitus - habitat, range and appearance all fit.

The lizard I'm not so confident but I think it might be a Western Fence Lizard.

Cheers

John
