Description
I stopped to watch a bee on Elderberry flowers. Watching the bee so closely, I did not notice the green Anole tail, sticking out of the flowers. This 8 inch lizard took off at the click of the camera so I do not have the front end to show you at this time. Photo taken at the Loxahatchee National Wildlife refuge in 2009 with my old Minolta camera! I left it large for a better zoom!
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments.
They are very much appreciated.

had to look a couple times to see what you were talking about Great and cool capture
Very long tail – do they eat bees? We have a lot of lizards this year but none so colorful – nice shot!
Hehe! I love this, Dana, what a find! I am very lucky that my camera is absolutely silent.
Great capture Dana. I would have never noticed it if you hadn't mentioned it. Slowing down some? lol
Very nice capture, Dana, this lizard is well hidden in the flower!
If you hadn't clicked the camera the bee would have been lunch !! Super capture Dana.
You really can see the tail only at second glance. Superb find and shot!!
So well camouflaged, I noticed the tail but thought it was a leaf, zooms great.
You captured this inflorescence at the good moment, excellent and funny shot, Dana !
beautiful Dana, like an overflowing glass of Champagne
Probably lucky for the bee that your camera is so noisey ! LOL Neat nature bonus Dana & ~Cheers~

I saw some of these in the woods thought they were very pretty but did not know what they were beautiful capture Dana.

Another unique picture. Thanks for sharing this, we had a bunch of these in our backyard when I was a kid. Long time ago.
cool! it has a long tail! and the capture turns out as a surprise! ;o)
What a long tail! These are what I think of when I hear the word lizard. They are what I grew up seeing the most in Louisiana and still see a lot of around my mom's house. We called them chameleons because of the way their skin changes colors. (It was a while before I knew that real chameleons are very different.) Great shot! I can see his body in the zoom.
As a bee I would also land here ....... Fantastic shot!
what a long tail. I always have trouble taking pictures of lizards/birds. beautiful plant

Marvelous flowers and fanatstic shot !!!
