More Anoles on Tuesday

Another day of off and on storms, plus an afternoon appointment and some car trouble (taken care of).

Just a couple of photos today. Here’s the smaller of the two screen door anoles. It had just caught one of its favorite meals–a spider. I’ve seen this anole hunt for spiders many times. It sits very still and carefully watches the grass near the back door, and then suddenly sprints over to a spot in the grass and comes up with a spider in its mouth. It must really like spiders! Ants, on the other hand, are pretty much ignored by anoles. I’ve watched ants walk right past anoles, even walking over their feet or tails, and the anoles don’t even seemed tempted.

Enjoying the meal.

And a baby anole on the fence. This one is a little girl.
