The coast horned lizard (Phrynosoma blainvillii), A flat bodied lizard that is found in chaparral habitat where it feeds predominantly on ants, development and the spread of nonnative argentine ants are its main threats.

A particularly dark northern pacific rattlesnake (Crotalus oreganus) basks after eating a large meal. Mostly hidden under a log only a portion of its body is exposed. This allows it to thermoregulate while remaining safe from predators.

A macro of the scales and triad pattern of a California mountain kingsnake (Lampropeltis zonata) from the Santa Cruz mountains. Many snakes with this pattern are called coral snake mimics but these kingsnakes live many 100s of miles from the nearest species of coral snake. The different colors may help break up the snake's shape when it moves.
