A young brown Anole that my cat was stalking. At least 50% of the lizards in my yard are tailless because of that cat..

Wonderful shot - they are so cute Ed. I like the way this is hanging off the stem and looking out for the cat.

He he...that's funny. Poor lizards. Excellent shot of this one, Ed. I bet it will be a big winner again.

At least this one has managed to escape the "jaws". Unusual take with the little fellow straining like that. Good capture, Ed.

This is a very good shot of this little feller! I like how the green branch and lizard stand out so well against the dark back-ground. Well done!

Better a lizard without tail than your cat without it, as I was told that the tail of a lizard will grow again.
Thanks for this very capture Ed, well done!

Looks like it might be tempting your cat right now Huck. A great pose for the anole. I think your cat must be a anomaly for collecting tails. You have a serial cat on your hands.

Excellent shot Ed. I think my dogs would have fun chasing the lizards around too. I like how it contrasts with the stem. Very well done.

A very good capture of him, and the tail reminds me of string I have to used to play with my kitties before.

He really stands out against the bright green and dark background. Love the pose you caught him in. Excellent!

Great shot, Ed. I love his upside down pose. Cute little fella. They grow tails back, right? Cat needs its exercise. lol

Oh, I almost caught one this past weekend in FL Ed, I love these little guys. I did capture one in a picture at Downtown Disney.

Super capture with wonderful lighting, shadows and detail.
