Re: Herp Alert!
Late night Bufo in the driveway. These guys are BIG. Had a few Spadefoot Toads around a couple weeks ago.
Agave
"American aloe plant," 1797, from Greek Agaue, proper name in mythology (mother of Pentheus), from agauos "noble," perhaps from agasthai "wonder at".

Re: Herp Alert!
Was just going through old photos and recognized an agave in the small thumbnail of this photo. Clicked on it and saw this little guy on it and remembered this thread, so figured I'd share it here.
This was in Vieques, Puerto Rico ten years ago. I didn't know anything about agaves back then, so I just took the photo of the lizard.

Coachwhip in my yard. I see these less frequently than Diamondbacks or Gopher Snakes.
