Long story short...I saw slight movement this AM on my night blooming epi...upon closer inspection: It's a bird...it's a plane...it's Super Lizard! And you know he's thinking...you best use that zoom b/c if you come any closer I'm gonna show you Air Lizard...
Course I called Chloe out and she says: "Awwwww baby? Mama?" I'm thinking I hope your mama, sisters and brothers are ALL around gobbling up nasty insects I don't want on my plants!!!

Share pics of garden "friends"
He's so adorable! Marshall said it's a green anole. He wanted to know if you have a lot of them - said he knows they're in NC but he's never heard of them being in Virginia before.
Chantell, I saw one myself the other day, but told DH I must be dreaming. We had them everywhere in FL, but I never expected to see one here in VA where it gets colllllldddd. Pam
*snort*
Too funny!
Better be careful Chantell! Chloe might bring them in as "pets"!
Ok...so I'm not the only one that thought he looked like an anole...that's what I told both DD's...but I honestly DON'T think they're "hardy" here....
Thank God Chloe nor I could catch him...
Hmmm, maybe he hitched a ride with us?
Ah, he's just auditioning for the next generation of Geico commercials. He's one of the ones that was "ordained" to share the news by Mr. Gecko... LOL.
He's too cute either way.
Roni
Chantell, he is really a cute little guy/gal. I googled them and enjoyed reading about them, interesting fact is they turn brown color when stressed. Proving green IS a relaxing color. LOL
LOL Ladygardener. I think the photo might be a little misleading. He was only about as big around as my index finger. You did have to walk right by him out the front door though which people who have snake phobias might have a problem with.
Oh Bobbie....I think, although not afraid of snakes, that would've given me a start!!!
Chris - that froggie is just the cutest thing ever (green is MY favorite color)!!!
Karen - how sweet is that baby????
Ahh Karen you caught a shot of of those pretties!!! Was on my deck and I caught sight of the famous blue tail but that was it!! Good job!
Karen, wow! a lizard with racing stripes and a blue after-burner for a tail. Quit a looker, I'd say.
ROTFLOL - start your engines
Wow, that striped one is very cool looking. All these lizards all of a sudden maybe someone set their collection free.
Hahahahahaha!!! :o)
Someone must be a NASCAR fan!
Nah...Jen at least not the blue tailed one...those are all around every summer. Karen - I am SOOO not a NASCAR fan...my oldest DD sadly is...nuf said....LOL
Ohhhh, why can't I get pretty visitors like that?
And what do you mean by "sadly is"?
NASCAR is the #1 spectator sport with median income of the fan $60K. So not just for rednecks anymore.
Go Mark Martin!!!
Yeah... aahhh.... no! I'm not a NASCAR fan either. No offense! There are plenty of you out there! Including many of my friends. But... aahhh... I just can't get into it.
Jen - b/c she makes me (more) insane with her stuff everywhere....it's maddening, I tell you!!!
Hee hee.... all our NSCAR stuff is still packed away in the attic.
That is some web.
Was tryin' to look for Charlotte and Wilbur and see "some pig" written in the web...LOL It actually wasn't really big...still I'm so amazed by their work
C... Great picture of the web, now that is one for the photo contest 2009.
Tell "PA" I said THATS a great shot!!!
Chris - very sweet of you but did you SEE some of those shots last year...sheesh!!

Chantell, you can't win if you don't enter. I've entered a few shots of my own. Didn't come close but had fun trying.
Tell hubby that's not "really good", it's AWESOME!
Not sure if I'd consider these "friends" but I caught these two up to no good last month! LOL Rick brought the female inside and placed her on the kitchen counter after their "encounter", said she was going to die anyway and he wanted to add her to his 'collection'. Sure enough, she was dead by morning but not before she had laid a trail of eggs on the counter- there must have been hundreds of them! LOL
Chris you're always such a dearheart!!!
Debbie - those are awesome...what type of moth are they?
It's a Giant Leopard Moth: http://davesgarden.com/guides/bf/go/587/
They grow up so fast...
Ahhhh look at him!!!
Really a very cool moth!!!! Thanx for the link
