Adorable bathroom lizard

Adorable bathroom lizard, originally uploaded by nanda2483.

This adorable little lizard slipped into our bathroom on our first night in Aruba. Both Eugene and I have a "thing" for little lizards (we kept trying to capture them when we were in Puerto Rico back in February), so we spent about ten minutes chasing it around the bathroom with the camera. I got this shot by standing on my tippy-toes on the toilet seat, while using Eugene's head as a balance.

The coolest part was how it kept changing colors based on the surface it crawled onto. It's practically translucent here, but when it was on the blue tiles, it had more of a greenish hue. He escaped soon after this was taken, and we learned to leave the window shut at night.
