Looking Out My Backdoor

The photo below is always a good clue that I might need to check the patio, particularly since I had the adult snake recently.


The cats have a daily lizard watch, but this one almost got by me. Not Jules or Vincent, though.



Do you work for UPS? I could have sworn you were checking out my package.

When males display for territory or females, they turn bright green. Both males and females have dewlaps although males' slightly larger; used for breeding and territorial displays. The Green Anoles in our area have pinkish dewlaps. (source:Wikipedia)
