Persia's Stalking a Lizard

"Stalking", as best she can, through the glass door to the patio She
sure manages to spot them! She chatters at them like she does birds at the
feeder. It eluded her by crawling around under the cover to my fire pit.
She kept watching and sure enough, it came back out again. She was
fascinated!

Around here there are two kinds of lizards, anole which are rather small:

Anoles are usually bright green but if need be they turn brown. The males
have a pink spotted throat flap which expands when they are defending their
territory, or when trying to entice a female. That's cute to see. I
haven't seen may anole lizards around this year.

Then there are skinks, which can get pretty big. Skinks have alternating
stripes down their backs and have blue tails. Very pretty!

It was a young skink she was "stalking". Rumour has it they are poisonous,
but that's a myth. They just taste bad to predators.
