What bored people do. My mother loves it when a lizard gets in the house. At 89 that's a little excitement in her life. My mother, sister, and I watched these two lizards meeting in the window and wondered if they were going to fight or what.
They met without incident and then passed on.
Each went his separate way.
This one looks back as if he (or she) is thinking of lost love.
Maybe this one is thinking "who could love someone as ugly as me".

Good pics - and observation. Creatures have spirits and emotions just like humans do. Some pair, or chose a mate for life.
Love Story is a good oldie - I read that book in the 5th grade - Ali McGraw and Ryan O'Neal did a good job in the movie. Now that I look back, I think one would have expected Ali's character (movie) to have been just a little more....raw - as it was in the book. A very sad ending.
I never have been willing to read "Oliver's Story", the sequel. Maybe one day.
It's all in the eye of the beholder. Lizards can be good company, and they eat mosquitos. Pappy
Cute pictures, especially with the music. You made me smile. So cool that you get to spend time with your mom at age 89. What a wonderful blessing that is. Enjoy each moment.
PS. - My camera is a Canon EOS Rebel XT- I love it very easy to use. Thanks for your comments.
"What bored people do", oh I do understand. My stories get a little more detailed, lizards have names, :), looking forward to 89 and the the lizards invade! Great post and happy holidays if I don't see ya before it ends.!
Ha! Loved the photos and the commentary, Dot.
Merry Christmas!
The images are very neat! A little creepy for me being in the house though. I'm squeamish. Loved your play by play of the meeting!
Merry Christmas Dot and many blessings for your New Year!
Looks to me like they hugged, then decided it wouldn't work out :-)
It's strange to see lizards in december. Around here, they sleep all winter long and come back in summer, where they spend long hours sleeping in the sun.And why would not they have love stories?But I prefer when they do that in THEIR home , and not mine...
Great photos and very nice this Love Story!
Dot: Neat story with great photos for the telling. My wife would die if a lizard was in the house.
Oh Mama That was so cool! It looked like one was gonna scratch the others back there for a minute! Too cute! I love lizards, inside or out.I guess I am a product of my Grandma! See u in alittle while.
Merry Christmas.
It looks like I could reach out and pick them up. We don't see them up in our area.
Sounds to me like you enjoyed the lizards as much as your mom! I know I would have...these are great captures. I doubt I ever get the chance to photograph one.
Oh Dot...you captured this Lizard Love Story Perfectly!! Well Done!!
Aw ... he's so sad he's blue

That's cute. I don't believe as one commenter stated, that creatures have spirits like humans do, but it sure is fun to write up little personifications like you did here.
Hey, Merry Christmas!
Dot,
These pictures are just great! I enjoyed this meeting of the lizards very much!
OH! I have had mant encounters with lizards in my house- LOL-You need to look up my stories sometimes for a LAUGH!
Also wanted to thank you about the comment you left about my granddaughter - re: the singing with her favorite band! :0 I thought she made that song better by joining in with them! haha
Merry Christmas, Dot!

Awww - poor little lizards, but at least they're warm inside the house!
Merry Christmas!
DOT - My name is on the list on The World in Black & White - does that mean I've been excepted? Or am I just on the list to be excepted, because the blog isn't showing up on my dashboard right now. Oh this is exciting = thank you!
Such a cute little story in pictures!! :-)
Merry Christmas to you and your family and may you have a happy and healthy new year my friend.
Love this post. Funny and creative. Good for your mother, most women freak at reptiles. Such sissies.
Cute pictures and story. :)
Lizards are interesting creatures. The last time we went to Florida I got lots of pictures of them.
Have a wonderful Christmas with your family Dot.

I wish you a Merry Christmas, Dot!
Looks like good fishing bait to me. :) Seriously, those are cute pictures.
Can you add me to your B&W site?
Love the narration. I personally think lizards are cute. Have a very Merry Christmas!
Nice story to go with your pics. It just looks like two lizards crossing in the night or day in this case. Lizards are kind of cute but you won't see me picking up one.
Happy holidays to you and your family!
What a cute story. You are so creative.
I hope you and your family had a very Merry Christmas.
Awww! Love this! Glad everyone got along. ;-)
Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!

Lizard hugs?? LOLOL!! Merry Christmas!!!!
As an immigrant, I know how they must feel. It is good to find others of your own flock when you are in a strange place. The pastels through the window make a beautiful backdrop. Did you let them back outside?
Great behaviour shots
Hi Dot
I got a message that you had a question about Franklin Ga..I wrote you back, but haven't heard from you again on what the question is..Just touching base, so let me know if I can help you. Hope you had a nice holiday
Well i think they were meant to be together and i am sure there paths will meet again. They are cute.
Hi Dot,
I wish to you and yours a WONDERFUL NEW YEAR!
The girls really thought the lizards were pretty cool - me, I freak out with the little albino geckos that get into our house. :D
Happy New Year!
Revee
Excellent shots and story Dot... Lizard love... :O)
I hate lizards. When I lived in Hawaii, they would run around on the walls. I used to kill them by sucking them up in my vacuum. I am a lizard murderer.
Oh...he/se is not so ugly.
And your pics are so wonderful.

Hahaha, that's a very funny post, I like it a lot.
