Default Horsfield flaked out

I know its about 41 degrees in the shade , (yaa hoo!) but honestly - you can always count on a Horsfield to fall asleep where they shouldn't !

He definitely wasn't drinking !

Well, he/she looks perfectly comfortable. Must be a nice cool spot.

Ha ! I suspect this one would have given the chance ! funny enough I tilt the plastic so it captures the rain and when I watered and it fell in there he decided he wanted to go into the very very cold water ! ? which is saying something for this weather ! ..but not so much now as its grey again

Great spot with some sun and shade.
That is what I like - shade on the top half and just my legs in the sun.
