Great photo! Love the action.
My sisters and I used to catch them all the time when we were kids growing up in West Texas. Sadly they are now a threatened species, and I rarely see them any longer. I haven't seen another one in over a year.
If you gently rub the top of the head between the "horns" the lizard will shut his eyes and look as if he's asleep.
Looks like a dominecker rooster to me. I'm no expert by any means, but my grandfather had dominecker hens and roosters. Of course this one may be crossed with another breed of chicken. Beautiful bird.
Great photo!
