We are very thankful to have a full hunting animal observation schedule here in our backyard! Mornings we chase observe bunnies, in the evenings we try and eat observe the local froggies and the afternoons are spent trying to catch observing lizards!!
By we...I mean mostly me(Rosy) although sometimes Sunny will assist.
This is one of my favorite lizard stomping observation areas. The lizards like to hide under the fake rock that hides some kind of sprinkler controls. I like to check on them by pawing at the rock then, they shoot out and I chase them! You know, so I can observe them closer...
Come out little lizard, and say hi to my bloggy friends...
Mr. Lizzz.....
ZOOOOOM!!!!!
Unfortunately, lizards are wicked fast. I have yet to catch observe them close up before they scamper up to the top of the fence to sunbathe.
No Mama, seeing a picture of him close up is
NOT the same......
I am thankful that lizards seem to be very plentiful and everyday brings new observation opportunities!
Sounds like you are busy! Dere's lotsa lizards at da Plano house, me and Brinley will bark em sometimes.
ReplyDeleteyes, they are super fast... no chance to catch them LOL
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a busy schedule. How on earth do you find time to eat and sleep? And blog?
ReplyDeleteIt's a mystery!
he looks like he might be a 2 cousin once removed from our Leonard, Lizzie and Lyle. per google lens search he is a soutwestern lizard which sounds right and ours are brown anoles BUTT they look very much the same. I laughed all the way through your backyard tale of hunting and observing. laughter is good for the soul. so are DOGS
ReplyDeleteWOW WOW what a treasure of sights, sounds, smells you have in your gorgeous yard.
ReplyDeleteLizards are quick as greased lightning...
I'm so happy to read you were only observing...not chasing. BOL BOL BOL
Hugs Aunty Cecilia
You sure do have a backyard filled with fun! Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
ReplyDeleteOur Angel Little Bit loved to hunt the lizards too. She never caught any either. Such fun she had. Hubby had one last year that would wait for him to find a bug while he was weeding and feed the bug to him. We love our lizards.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Thankful Thursday. Scritches all around and my best to your peeps. ♥
You girls sure have lots to entertain you in your new backyard. I hope you catch one of those lizards!
ReplyDeleteThat's one cute, well fed lizard. He must be 'observing' bugs closely. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou THINK they're plentiful, Rosy, until a snake moves in and eats them all. That happened to me, er, my lizards last year. XOX Xena
ReplyDeleteHow fun to have lizards to "observe" in your yard. We hope you get that up close inspection opportunity soon. BOL!
ReplyDeleteWe are not allowed to even look at frogs or lizards because Mom is terrified of them and if we ever touch one, she says she will never touch us again. She is very extreme about her fears so we leave them alone. Thankfully we have never seen any in our yard. You all have fun with yours, though.
ReplyDeleteWe loved seeing the lizard! Our Florida associate, Miss Charlee, says there are always lizards around in her yard. But, yes, they are super fast and very difficult to get a picture of. Have fun with your continued nature "observations!"
ReplyDeleteWhat would you do if you caught one? Keep it as a pet?
