Green Anole; Anolis carolinensis

Munson, FL Sept. 1, 2007 I found this anole on a marsh plant while I was photographing dragonflies at Blackwater River State Park. These lizards can change color from green to brown in seconds if necessary. The males have a bright throatfan that can be inflated to attract a mate or intimidate rival males. Anoles eat insects and spiders.
