    Well that's my learning of today Brian,

    I had to look them up on Wikipedia to see what they look like - it seems they do have legs

    Can't critique the shot, given the extreme circumstances necessary for the capture.

    Thanks for sharing, Dave

    They were about 4 meters high and very shy. Which meant I was about 2 meters from the tree and sort of hiding under the bushes. it was a pleasure to share.

    As strange as this sounds it is considered good luck to have them in your house.

    Thanks for sharing Brian, I didn't know about them either. We have some little ,pink ,translucent lizards here in Turkey , especially in areas with hot climate. They get into the houses and eat flies, people don't throw them out either as they are harmless and useful
