Description
This male anole lizard was showing off his extended dewlap as I spotted him perched on a wall in Charleston, South Carolina.
The Carolina anole (Anolis carolinensis) is an arboreal lizard found primarily in the southeastern United States and some Caribbean islands. Other common names include the American green anole, American anole, and red-throated anole. It is also sometimes referred to as the American chameleon due to its ability to change color from several brown hues to bright green and its somewhat similar appearance (though it is not a true chameleon).

So great, Sharon, that you could capture this without it taking off. It certainly conjures my imagination as to what it is thinking, "just catching some rays," "showing off," "am I not just the fairest lizard in the land," or "don't be alarmed, it's what I do." Well done! LF Janet💕
