We probably saw between 20-30 banded geckos.
After seeing a DOR patch-nosed snake and a DOR black-headed snake, our first live specimen was a fair-sized gopher snake.
Being happy with a gopher snake.
Saw him again on the road on the way back, even though we had taken him off the road for his safety.
Our second snake was a small glossy snake. Unfortunately, we also saw a very large, live glossy snake, but after pulling over to the side of the road, a car behind us sped past and killed it before we could get to it.
Giant desert hairy scorpion sitting on the road.
Armed and dangerous.
Our third live snake was a little sidewinder making his way across the road.
Chuckwallas were out in full force around Vegas.

Trying to stay unseen.
Lyre snake.
A second lyre snake was found on the road, and a third DOR lyre was also found.
Sidewinder found about during daylight amongst the soft sand. 
Having a look around.
Taking a closer look at the sidewinder.
We also managed to find a nice-looking speckled rattlesnake.
Photo shoot with the spec.
Speckled rattlesnake in all its glory!
