More creatures from around the yard -- Eastern Glass Lizard -- that's right. I said, "lizard." I know you are wondering if the grasshoppers ate the lizard's legs, but they didn't. The Eastern Glass Lizard is legless, but still has eyelids and external ear openings like the other lizards. This one had one of those grasshoppers land on his eye -- talk about a stupid grasshopper -- "here's your sign."

Those blue eggs are beautiful against the brown straw. Be careful not to scare away momma bird from coming back to the nest.

Thanks, SJ. She comes back to my rose trellis every year. :wub:
That blue is before the auto correct. I undid it because it was so blue it looked fake. :D

Oh, I meant to ask, do those skanks bite? Nice shot.

What ever happened to my favorite band from Athens? I loved to watch those guys play. The best show I ever saw was when the singer/guitar player played a solo acoustic show at the little blues bar, where Pat Hood often played.

They're still around. They have a myspace page.

Those blue eggs should be from the Robin.

A good one for this area is the National Audubon Society -- Field Guide to Florida, which is available locally, at Sundog Books in Seaside.

I got this yesterday for the girls (& me, of course!) & they love it! They fight over who gets to hold it and read it. R wants to know what every creature in the world is.
