A Carolina Anole

Late in the afternoon, I looked out of the glass door, that opened onto the outdoor patio, and I spotted one reptile, walking across the outdoor patio screen. This reptile is dark in color, and this reptile is alive. Reptile: Any of various usually cold-blodded, egg-laying vertebrates, often grouped in the class Reptilia, having dry skin covered with scales or horny plates, and breathing by means of lungs, which includes snakes, lizards, crocodilians, and turtles.
