chameleon love...



I just got home a about ten minutes ago and found these two looking for all the world like "afternoon delight." I watched and neither made any effort to move. Went and got my camera, came back, and took about 10 pictures, and they just continued to look lost in bliss. They were still completely relaxed and happy when I left and allowed them their privacy.

Maybe these photos are in poor taste, but I've never seen anything like this before and think they look sweet. He looks quite protective and gentle, don't you think?

Didn't get home last night until about 7:00. Today was a long day, too, but a pleasant one. Laddie and I drove to Minden to visit Aunt Mary who is doing so much better. We got back to town a little before 5:00 and had a quick bite to eat, then I came home.

Fee is supposed to come home tonight. If so, I could use a Margarita on the Rocks!

  2. I didn't know chameleons were so affectionate. Good photos as usual.

  3. I find tender moments among reptiles to be particularly touching. I have many picture of blissed-out water snakes, but have never seen this with the little chamleons. Is hard to think of it as 'poor taste' when the vibe IS so tender ...

  5. I've never been able to get a good shot of the chameleons that frequent my garden. They usually take off when I try to approach too close. I do think they seem so tender, and I was delighted that they ignored me as I snapped all the pictures.
