Fence lizard on the screen
During the summer months, I've taken to working in the garden in the
morning then heading inside for an afternoon in front of the
computer. Sometimes, though, the garden doesn't want to be
ignored.
As I mocked up a client's website on Wednesday, I heard a sudden noise
and looked over to find a Fence Lizard clinging to the window
screen. It seemed to be hunting insects --- perhaps it had
discovered that the window screen acted a bit like a spider's web,
catching flying insects off-guard? Whatever its purpose, the
lizard clung to the screen for nearly an hour before skittering back to
its usual hunting grounds in the garden.
