Wild Anoles in Florida! (i know, not Geckos, but cute)

I went to Sanibel Island, FL last Fall and these little guys were everywhere. They make great earrings, lol!

Aww, I remember trying to catch these guys as a kid, they are fast! Slightly OT, but FYI, these are Cuban brown anoles, which are an invasive species and have displaced many of the native green anoles. Which is why you don't see the green ones much anymore. Hard to be mad at something so cute though.

Cute photos!
It's a bummer they're outcompeting the indigenous anoles. Exotics, when introduced to the right environment, can really wreak havoc on local species
