We arrived at Jack & Irene's yesterday, but didn't do much photography, so I'll show you a relative rarity from yesterday - a gila monster in the wild. We saw this fellow not long after the diamondback, and along the same mountain loop road. He was about 12 inches long and rather slow-moving. They are poisonous, though, but rangers have told Sheila the gila monster would have to gnaw on you for a while before the poison penetrated the skin.
