Description The green anole is normally bright green, but can change color to brownish-green or dark brown in seconds. It is sometimes call the American chameleon because it can change color, but it is not a true chameleon.  Green anoles can't control their color changes to the extent that chameleons can. They change in between various shades of brown and green depending upon stress levels, health, mood, humidity and temperature. A light green anole is generally active, happy, and stress free.  Like the one in this picture!

Yeah, he looks 'too' stress free! It's you, always in their faces with that camera! They are true veterans now and have that 'relaxed' look to prove it!


Awesome shot, as always with your work! !!

"many types of chameleons can only turn, green, brown, or gray. Others have the ability to change to a variety of different colors including: pink, blue, red, orange, green, black, brown, blue, yellow, turquoise, and purple. Of the ones that can change color, they’ll often change to darker shades, when they are cold, and will lie out in the sun during this time. Likewise, if they are hot, they can change to lighter colors which will reflect the sun better, helping to cool themselves off."

Most reptiles can change there colors somewhat.
