I'd love to know how you got him to sit in your hand...did you drug him first...LOL!

The ones we have here in Florida you can't even catch!

Great image though!!

I think he just fell in love with me :)
He was on a security guy when I was speaking to him and he jumped on me while I was on the lounge chair and he stayed on my hand, then leg, then on boyfirend and back to me. It was very strange. He was not afraid at all. I found that very unusual!
Julie and I are going to find him--would you like to join us?????:)

I had a few of those as pets when I was a kid, should be able to get them at pet shops really cheap, it's a Green Anole.:D

You're right, I'll see you there. I'm not sure how easy it will be to find him when I'm on the beach drinking margaritas.

Rob He's very tiny so you only need one hand to grab him and the other hand for a cocktail!!! :D

Glad Rob's coming along. We need someone experienced in the care and feeding of reptiles.... ;)

Sure I'll come help...maybe we can draw him out with food...now what do they eat?? Or maybe he just likes pretty women!

What a great photo!

I tried and tried (with minimal success) to get a shot of an anole on our last vacation.

And our grandson tried--with equally dismal results--to catch one!
