Another possibility would be a Cope's Leopard Lizard.

From that site:

I thought it might have been a whiptail or fringe toed but it looks like these.

BC-Axeman: Good job, you got it.

Goalie: Send a copy of your picture to both California Herps and Wild Herps websites linked above. Every time someone sees and takes photos of endangered species, it is nice to know where they were and when the picture was taken so it can be recorded. They may like to see that.

Lol, that is funny. Looks like I was wrong about them. I know some people I can share these photos with.
