I have just discovered that the garden is home to a young lizard. Where
there's one there's bound to be more - I hope!

So far I've never seen the cats with any.

Cheers, helen s

I take it that lizards eat things you'd rather not have in the garden?
Or do you just like lizards?

Lizards over here are *small* and only eat little insects, little spiders -
there's nothing in the garden that falls into the "rather not have"
category. Plus, it's quite unusual to have them in the garden - they tend to
be elusive - well, unless you're in Castle Acre where they leap all over the
grounds of the castle ruin :-)

Pretty much the same diet as toads and frogs - insects.

Our Tessie often performs Gecko patrol. Consisting on early early
evening sitting on the window sill and watching the geckos up on the
eves getting the last of the afternoon heat from the concrete walls of
our apartment building.

Speaking of lizards.
We have a large spiny variety here in Texas.
I have a few in the house, they love scorpions.

One day I heard a plaintive "mew" I'd never heard before.
Max had an enormous vocabulary, he could even pronounce "nuclear", and this
sound was a new mew, so to speak.

I discovered Max had grabbed a lizard by the head and the lizard had grabbed
Max's tongue.
The lizard got away.

There is a cartoon, famous among pilots, of a frog in a stork's mouth: The
frog is choking the stork.
Caption: Never Give Up.

PS
I could always tell when Max had been eating baby skunks: His breath REEKED.

Have you spoken to the lizard yet? What kind of accent does he have?
;)

I did speak to the lizard, but it was too shy to speak back. What with being
a youngster an'all, it was understandable.
