Western Fence Lizard Sitting on its Haunches

I saw these two western fence lizards in front of one of the offices (I see them all the time there), and one was sitting on its haunches, a position I’d not seen one take before. It gives the lizard a higher point of view to look for bugs to eat. I was lucky to get these pictures.

28 September 2020, near main office in Sonora, California.
