First horned lizard sighting of 2026 šŸ¦ŽšŸ”„

We spotted this incredible Horned Lizard right here in Escondido, California — perfectly camouflaged and absolutely prehistoric looking. Nature never disappoints. The detail, the armor, the patience… these little desert dragons are something special.

Seeing our first one of the year is always a reminder of how wild Southern California still is if you slow down and look closely.
