Battle Scars
About 10 minutes before this Anole lizard scampered on the railing of our backdoor stoop, I spotted one in the bushes on the other side of the bay windows in our kitchen. I wonder if this is the same one?
When editing this shot, I noticed this fellow appears to be covered in scars and old wounds. The top of his head and mouth look dented and scarred. Over his shoulders look like old puncture wounds, and on his back over his hind legs are more scars. And of course, his tail looks like it has been broken off and grown back, too.
Poor thing, after seeing this, I immediately ran to refill the mealworm feeder, since the anoles like mealworms, too!
