Field Notes

Description:

I think the more colorful one is a male.

Habitat:

backyard

Notes:

I think they are all brown anoles but this guy looked so bright...perhaps a juvenile? The second anole has a missing leg...is she a female?

I really like the third picture. Very dignified pose.

Thanks Chris...I didn't realize the male was so much more colorful.

Neat looking! I've only seen them when they are flat brown.
