A Green Anole peeks over the edge of a leaf, looking for insects to eat. I spent about two hours with these little lizards in my sister's back yard in Jacksonville, Florida when visiting last year (2019). Very happy with some of my captures :)
Green Anoles average about 4 inches in body size, with their tails extending another 4 inches. While the lizard above appears quite large, it is due to the perspective of my macro lens magnification, and the close proximity of the lens to the animal.
In order to get this close without spooking it and having it scurry away, it required a very patient stalking technique involving slow movement, quiet presence, and muscles in my arms and hands that often quivered uncontrollably due to holding my heavy gear for such extended handheld sessions! Actually surprising that ANY of my images were sharp, lol.

This beautiful black and white lizard was seen at a lodge in South Pantanal, Brazil. I assume it was fairly used to people walking around as it showed no sign of aggression or fear. They are reported to be affectionate and intelligent which makes them popular in the pet trade. Wikipedia also says that Tegus that have escaped or have been illegally released have adapted and are increasing in South Florida.

This lizard is very, very small. He/she seems to live here in the middle of different plants.

The sand lizard (Lacerta agilis) is a lacertid lizard distributed across most of Europe and eastwards to Mongolia. It does not occur in the Iberian peninsula or European Turkey.
As juveniles they are usually brown with two light brown lines on the top of the flanks, on the flanks they have light spots bordered by a dark colour. Male adults are usually green on the flanks and a brownish back with smaller black markings and lighter scales inside of these black markings, the tail is brown and hind limbs also. Females are more brown, on the flanks they have various dark markings also with a lighter dot or two inside of this dark patch. Sand Lizards can reach up to 25 cm (10 in) in length. This species can be found in a wide range of habitat types including meadows, heathland, coastal dunes, grassland, steppe, subalpine and alpine meadows, shrubland, hedgerows, open woodland, in alpine areas, traditionally managed agricultural land and rural gardens. It appears after hibernation in March in the North, in March - April in the South and at mountains.

Jaszczurka zwinka spotkana w lesie :)
Jaszczurka zwinka (Lacerta agilis) – gatunek jaszczurki z rodziny jaszczurek właściwych. Występuje na większości kontynentu europejskiego poza jego południowymi krańcami. Na zachodzie granicą jej zasięgu jest środkowa Francja. Na północy spotkać ją można nawet w centrum Półwyspu Skandynawskiego. Jej wschodnie siedliska sięgają po środkową Rosję. Występuje również w Turcji i zachodniej Azji. Zwinka preferuje siedliska nizinne. Najczęściej można ją spotkać w niskiej trawie, wygrzewającą się w słońcu. Jest bardzo ciepłolubna. Maksymalna długość ciała w Polsce dochodzi do 25 cm. Samca można odróżnić od samicy po tym, że ma on zielonkawe podbrzusze, czasem nakrapiane drobnymi plamkami, zaś samica ma szary lub kremowy spód ciała. W okresie godowym, czyli w maju, samce przybierają intensywną zieloną barwę. Młode zwinki po wykluciu się, podobnie jak młode innych jaszczurek, są znacznie ciemniejsze niż osobniki dorosłe. Jej ogon jest nieco dłuższy od tułowia. W sytuacji zagrożenia zostaje odrzucony jako przynęta dla drapieżnika. Z czasem odrasta do pierwotnej długości.
These were all over. They are very cute but terribly quick. I have no idea how I got so lucky here.

I am so sorry but I don't know what type of Lizard this is. I know lots of folks don't like lizards but I love them because of the great texture and designs of their skin....Thank you very much for viewing my photo ! I truly appreciate any faves and comments ! 😊
The tropical tree lizard, scientifically known as Urosaurus bicarinatus, is a species of lizard belonging to the family Phrynosomatidae. It is commonly found in Mexico, with its range extending across various regions, including Sonora, Michoacán, Guerrero, Puebla, Morelos, Oaxaca, Chiapas, Jalisco, Aguascalientes, Durango, and México.
This species is characterized by its distinctive appearance, featuring parallel rows of extra-large scales down its back, which help distinguish it from other Urosaurus species in the area. The tropical tree lizard is also known for its coloration, which can vary but often includes grayish tones with dark cross-bars and blue abdominal patches.
This individual was photographed at the Estación de Biología Chamela of the UNAM, in Jalisco, Mexico.

It was forecast to be too hot for bird photos today (38C); so long time friend and fellow flickr tog Joe Micallef and I decided to catch up and have a coffee instead.
Seems that we weren't the only ones keen on that plan......
