It is so cool to see these out in the wild rather than just at the pet store!
The Green Anole (Anolis carolinensis) is also known as the Carolina Anole. Often, it will simply hest be referred to as a “chameleon” in the pet trade, but it is not a true Chameleon.
Although it is not a true Chameleon, the Green Anole can change colors between Brown and Green. The one in this post had been brown when I captured it, but switched to green. I have always enjoyed watching them change colors.
This lizard is commonly found across its natural habitat in the southeastern part of the United States, usually along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. They are a harmless lizard that helps keep the insect population in check. For more info, you’ll have to check the video out.
The information is the video is original but I did have a quick refresher from this source.

As a kid in Northeast Texas we would catch these and let them bite our ears. Their teeth are so small or not sharp that it didnt hurt and we would wear them like earrings for a minute or so until the little guy would ask himself "WHAT am I doing!??!!" He would let go and usually wise up against a second ear-ride.
Good times!!!

The last time i saw this, i killed it instead of picking it up like you do and see what stuff it made off. I must be a bad person :)

Not a bad person, just mis-trained or mis-taught. So many today think of such creatures as pests or dangerous, and 95% are BENEFICIAL and harmless. But people are 'naturally' afraid of things they do not understand! It is great that @papa-pepper and You Tuber Anima Ex Nihilo can show that most of these creatures are good.

I love the green anole. Used to see them all the time in Georgia. In maryland i haven't seen any darn lizards. Lol. Do you have skinks in your location? They have smoother skin and some have beautiful vibrant blue tails. They are VERY fast

I love these little guys. We have them all over yard in North east Florida, and occasionally they get into the house and we have to rescue them. Our house is a pinkish color, so it's not unusual to see one blending right in with the stucco!

Green to brown I have seen, but you say they can change to almost pink and blend in with pink!?? That would be cool to see!!

Well, I suppose it's a pinkish brown - like a beige. I do have some images somewhere, but have so many hard drives full of images now, that I may have trouble finding it. Maybe I'll see one soon in that color and will photograph him!

I've been so scared of Amphibians and Reptiles, I wouldn't know if it's a phobia or not. I'm trying to break out of the fears though. A little practice with some harmless amphibians would be helpful, but I'm not sure we have Green Anole in my country

And skinks are great about ducking under leaf litter or into a crack. I put up a couple vids on YouTube with them, but honestly not that good because they refuse to stay still for very long!!!

I had never even known about them until I found one in my bedroom on Valentine's Day during a blizzard when I was in ninth grade. By the way, they aren't native to this area. (We have a lot of skinks, and somehow lots of gators on gold courses, but not green anoles.)
I caught it, took it to school to show my science teacher. He was amazed I'd found one here. I named him Raphael and he was a wonderful pet for around a year or so. I did get him a nice aquarium and a heat lamp. I bought him crickets, but I also caught him loads of other bugs when I could. His favorite bugs were fireflies.
