I love seeing these lizards running around.
Back where I'm from, the only place you'd see these is in pet shops. For about $7 USD, you could get your own and keep it as a pet. Although they are technically an Anole, they were often called Chameleons due to their color-changing capabilities.
If you notice the dark spot behind his eye in this photo and compare it to the last photo above, you'll see that this spot on the Anoles head also changed color. This spot is not for camouflage though, it is to let you know that he is angry. Capturing it caused him to get angry with us, so we let it go and then took the photos. You'll see that it took a while for it to get over it, since it still has that black spot in the photos below.

What do we have here, this looks amazing and with the way it looks, no doubts it could feature as an actor. Haha

Damn, I wanted one as a pet since I was a teen. Could be a good cockroach catcher for your house.

You know I think a lot of us would like to see, when possible, "proof" video of you catching all these creatures! Then we can learn the skills on how to catch, safely, wild creatures!

You took some really beautiful macro shots of this awesome little anole, nice job @papa-pepper.
Like @sallybeth23 I hadn't heard of these creatures before, so thank you for introducing me to them. How interesting that they have that dark spot to express anger!
