24 viewsA uninvited guest comes for a visit. This is a 'tocay' lizard of about 12 inches long. They are harmless enough, but during breeding times they make a loud call that sounds like 'tocay' (and thus the name)! (06-Jul-04)dozer

There are two pumps used, one pumps from the tank to the house and one pumps from the well to the tank. (02-Jul-04)dozer
