Shhhh... sleeping lizard

Found this little fella camped out on a tree sapling on my front porch.

Unsharp mask applied to make up for my poor night focusing skills (AF wouldn't lock in).

Tell us more about him. Where is your porch? Great pic.

Thanks, all. I live in Alabama (US), near Montgomery. We have these little critters running all over the place here. There is another one sleeping on one of the shutter on the porch this evening, too.

They change colors to match their backgrounds. The one on the shutter was a similar shade of beige as the shutter itself when I first saw him (couldn't get the camera out at that time, though). Later in the evening, he had turned green like the one on the tree limb.

I've got some other good pictures of these fellas from a ways back, in my point-and-shoot days.
