A peek at the "back" side of Hong Kong Island. I didn't realize that the Island has so much wilderness and vegetation. Until I spent some time there :)
This young female calotes was trying to hide behind the branch initially when she saw me. A natural reaction indeed. After a while, she realized that I'm not a threat and peeked from behind the branch, though she was less than an arm's length from my body.
Even a small twig of branch between the animal and human makes the animal feel very comfortable and safe indeed, since these are arboreal and feel at home in the trees.

We were walking through Costco looking at furniture (they always have it for sale when I can't afford it! Not that I could get it home in my Suburban anyways...) and stopped to look at something, when I noticed this mirror. She had to bend waaayyy over to see herself, but we had a fun few minutes playing peek-a-boo. ;)
I was so thrilled to have this incredibly shy boy open up to me and start to be mischievous. At the start of our session he couldn't even let go of his mother's hand by the end we were good buddies and he started playing games.

It will look like that before we know it.

Such a wonderful day seeing this little one. Cant wait to look at the rest when my eyes will stay open :)
This friendly anole was playing hide and seek with me in my backyard. His hiding place was a leaf on my canna lily plant. I loved that I could see the outline of his little body through the leaf!
Florida is the land of invasive species.The most common of our invaders is the Brown Anole Lizard.
Anoles are Native to Cuba, and found as a subspecies in the Bahamas and several other Caribbean islands, it was first described scientifically in 1837. It is a brownish-tan color, lighter at the sides and darker on the back, though like most members of the Anolis group it can change its skin color, usually according to temperature--pale brown when warm, and darker brown to almost black when cool.
As with many lizards, Brown Anoles have the ability to voluntarily cast off their own tails, known as "autotomy". If seized by a predator, the lizard can break off its own tail, which then twitches spasmodically and distracts the attacker while the lizard escapes. Although the tail eventually grows back, it's not unusual to see Brown Anoles with half their tail missing. They are insectivores, and eat any sort of small arthropod that they can catch.
