|
While waiting for Oreo to come home Earlene and I walked and dug up so much and I found lizards every where in her yard .They are so different than I have around my home.I wonder if I catch a couple I could get them started here.I hope someone can tell me if it will work.
I didn't realise there was two of them in this tree until I put them on my computer.
I just love lizards and thought this one was a beauty.
After the lizards She showed me her English Dogwood.She said thats the name she was told .I do love the blooms and I did get some of it.

Lovely lizards. They're so cute! Lucky you who can see them outside like that.

Glendann, my lizards came out of their winter hibernation this week. I love to watch them. I caught two of them doing their push-up thingy and puffing out their red pouch on their neck.
My frogs have come out too!!
I'm so glad it is Springtime!!

Great pictures Glenda. I'll bet those lizards eat a lot of bugs...nice to have around the garden.

Wow...those green babies look like chameleons to me. Did one of them have red under his chin? I believe that would be the markings of a male. If there are a male and female...there will be babies and perhsps you can get a couple from your friend.
That "English Dogwood"--do the flowers have a pleasant and somewhat strong fragrence? It looks like a Philadelphus to me.
Anyway, thanks alot for the very interesting fotos this time.
