Tree Frogs
Tuts the Green Treefrog
Tuts was the first Green Treefrog I ever caught. Although upclose he looks very bumpy (and possibly sticky) when held he feels smooth and slimy.
Jeremy the Gray Treefrog
This is a baby Gray Treefrog that I hatched from an egg (along with it's 113 little relatives). His name is Jeremy.

Simon the Skink
Simon is a cute little skink that I found in on our porch. He came to bask in the sun almost every afternoon. Eventually I decided to catch him so I could study him more closely. When I attempted to catch him he dropped his tail and ran off. At first he fooled me because the tail was sort of slithering instead of jumping around.But then I chased and caught him.
Larry the Anole
I found this lizard in Florida, it is an Anole. It just stopped nodding its head before I could get a picture of it.
