Green Anoles are cool looking
lizards but they're a bit camera shy.
I used to see a lot more of them in Florida when I was a kid. Now I can
go a year without seeing one. The
brown anoles
seem to have taken over the territory.
Green Anoles are very observant lizards; they see you coming and vanish
quickly. That makes them particularly difficult to photograph.
The
green lizard above ran across a
Firebush, but only paused a moment to look at me. The one on the
fence was perfectly situated on top of the rail, until I aimed the
camera at it, but I rather like the shot anyway.
