This little yellow-faced gecko was living in the sink outside. Each day, I would look forward to seeing him and on rare occasions, would manage to get a shot of him. He was quite shy! I think he was going into the molting phase as I saw a lizard that was molting with eyes also having a glazed look...

A green lizard I encountered; he was quite long but very flighty.

And a very cute mantis that visited our deck one evening.

Many thanks for your comments, Kurt, Brian, Kurt and George. Lizards can be quite a challenge!
