The bright green high up in the poinciana tree caught my eye.
This type of lizard is called a 'Warwick Lizard' in Bermuda (properly, its a Barbados anole/Anolis leachii. It was introduced to Bermuda in the 1940's, originally in Warwick parish. They're gradually moving eastwards and in the last few years have become quite a common sight in Smiths.

I have never seen such a brightly coloured lizard. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteI spent a week in Bermuda in March 2007, and never saw any lizards like that. I guess I wasn't in the right place. What a beautiful animal!
ReplyDeleteI was in Bermuda in April 2009 to visit my daughter in Southampton, near Gibbs Lighthouse, and saw lots of these. Took lots of pictures but didn't know the name of them. Thanks. Kevin Rogers
