Description
Here is a slight change of pace from my recent flower series.
This lazy lizard was warming himself in the late afternoon sun Sunday and let me get pretty close for this shot. We have many varieties here in Florida, but I'm not up on my herpetology so don't know its exact genus. I'm guessing maybe some kind of anole? Maybe one of you can tell me, esp. the Hawaiian guys! ;)
