Breakfast strikes back

At first, this green anole had the bug in its mouth, but then events took a turn for the worse. At first I thought the bug was a larder beetle, but now I believe it’s a Chinese rose beetle, though I wouldn’t bet the farm on that. In the end, it got away. The anole did not look pleased to have these events witnessed.

For more information about green anoles, go to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carolina_anole.

    They are super fascinating! I could observe them for hours. You would love the Azores – there are so many!
