Green Anole
The Green Anole (Anolis carolinesis), also called a Green Fence Lizard, are indigenous to the southeastern states. They are so cool and quite friendly. My youngest daughter used to "wear" them as earrings. Interestingly, they will come acclimated to a camera flash, as if they know you're photographing "food."
