you are just out of the Carolina Anole's rangeNice pic! I've got no shortage of lizards on my property but I've never seen an anole here. I may be just bit too fat north for them. I do like to watch them zip around the bushes when I go to Florida.

they are all over my place in cary , never saw one in Northern alamance.Sharp image & nice picture.
I used to see a bunch of Anoles in Chatham County, but just don't see any up here by the Orange/Durham County border. There's also a lot by where my brother lived in Wilmington.

I found a Special Services Handbook in an old junk car about 40 years ago- the most memorable line in it was "All hairless caterpillars are good to eat".so back when I was young and "full of myself" we were down at Hurlburt/Eglin area for an exercise,,, it was fall/winter of 1981,,,we were taking a break and talking smack to each other,,, conversation was oriented on "survival eating" the ol' 'if you can hold it in your hands it's edible" concept (minus poisonous stuff of course you heathens),,,,,and this fellow didn't believe I'd devour most anything if I was hungry,,,
he happened to have a #10 can with a few anole in there that he'd caught,,,,
I picked up a piece of bread, looked him in the eye and said, "put one of them here,,, I need a sandwich",,,, he did and about died when I bit that anole sandwich in half,,,, ol' tail just a wagging out the far side,,,, then ate the rest in two more bites,,, smacked my lips,,, might even have burped,,,
Anole are edible ya know,,,,
nice pic,,,
