It's horned toad season! I've seen at least a dozen in the last week or so, and they've all been small like this one.
High desert / pine forest in southwestern Colorado.
Thanks Yuliono. You're right that it's a lizard... "horned toad" is the common name because of the shape. I think they're really appealing, even cute. :)
nice pic.. looks ugly and cocky though lol..so, it's actually a lizard, not really a toad:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horned_liza...
