Sceloporus undulatus
Medium-sized lizard, usually brown, mottled with black. Males in breeding colors have bright blue or turquoise throat and sides.
Found this one basking on an ornamental boulder alongside a road into Bear Creek Nature Center. Mixed conifer and oak woodland adjacent to a riparian corridor with periodic open areas.
Very common species along the Front Range.
