If you've ever had the pleasure of taking a stroll through our little garden, or brought a food donation into the pantry, you may have caught a glimpse of our resident fence lizards. One tends to perch, every afternoon, on the concrete pad behind the dumpster, but Two prefers the top of the fence next to the building. They're really very cute, for reptiles that is, and not particularly skittish. If you approach them quietly and keep your distance, they don't scurry away but just swivel their little heads and look at you. And just this summer, they've hatched out babies. I've counted three, at least, but they tend to be a bit more camera shy than their parents.
So now that we have a whole family of fence lizards in the Grace Network garden, it's time they had real names. Numbers just won't do. Put on your thinking caps and help us name our lizards. Post your suggestions on our Facebook page.
Here are photos of One and Two. Photos of the babies to come.
