Superb shot Stanley, every wrinkle of this fascinating creature set beautifully against the green foliage. I guess it will be a little easier to photograph than birds, at least it can't fly away! A pity it's in the "invasive" category, but it's still highly photogenic.

He's cute really, though, isn't he. Even if he is a furriner (as they say in Cornwall;))

A super picture this Stanley - very well done laddie.

Beautiful photo of this anole, all the more impressive for the grass in the front that could have thrown off the focus
