Behavior Pattern

Brown Anole, Anolis sagrei, Caribbean native accidentally introduced to the US and elsewhere by the importation of ornamental plants. The pattern darkens in response to surroundings, for camouflage. Capable of high population densities, crowds out and preys on other lizards. Gulf Coast native Greens have been mostly relegated to treetops. Supposedly more wary of humans than Greens, but I took this through the kitchen window.
