Anolis carolinensis
A month and a half ago, I went on spring break to Seaside, Florida. Outside of our condo, on the way to the beach we found her. A green anole (Anolis carolinensis). They are abundant in the south with a range from North Carolina, down to Key West, Florida, and all the way west to Texas. They typically grow to a length of 5 to 8 inches and are found on fences, around old buildings, on shrubs and vines, or on the ground. They feed primarily on insects, spiders, and other arthropods that can be gulped down whole. They're really cute too.
