A chance encounter
Today while admiring the new red bronze growth on my grumichama, my eye caught a very fast movement. I was astounded to see this beautiful green lizard in the picture catching a smaller brown lizard and chomping down on it. The large green lizard is most probably a Knight Anole (Anolis equestris), the prey is probably a Brown Anole, (Anolis sagrei). Both are introduced species. I found this information at Florida and Georgia Anoles
