Hot Off the Presses! Photos of Chameleon Sex!
I spot one of my garden chameleons on the jambu tree, where he normally perches. … Honestly, my first thought was “hmm, he’s getting lunch”, even though I didn’t think lizards ate other lizards. … Then, a second or two later – cuz, yes, they really were that fast – separated, although that took a couple of seconds, too.

Project #365 Day 176 – A Sunbathing Chameleon

Project #365 Day 174 – Another viewing of the friendly neighborhood lizard
For a while there, my mother in law wondered if we had rats rooting around in the garden digging holes up against the house. … Finally, I clued in one day when, for the like fifth day in a row I caught the lizard digging around in the garden where the holes at the side of the house are. … And, unfortunately, he runs the second he hears me, which means I’m really good at getting photos of him from behind, but not so good at getting photos from the front.
Project #365 Day 159 – Chameleon
Chameleons are more frequent visitors to our yard than I would have expected. I didn’t see any for the longest time, but more recently, I’ve been seeing them a lot more frequently. … Do you like it, hate it, or are you indifferent to it?
