π𧬠Researchers analyzed the genomes of over 1000 #squamate species to understand the rapid diversification of #snakes.
The findings suggest that snakes evolved up to 3 times faster than #lizards to develop their unique sensory systems and flexible bodies. The shift allowed them to survuve in diverse environments after the loss of their limbs over 100 million years ago.

An oriental garden lizard sits on a tree trunk to catch flying prey in Tehatta, West Bengal, India. These lizards are known for their ability to change colour and blend in to their surroundings, chameleon-style.

Well, today's lizard report had some surprises. I didn't see Bill or Donna all day but I fed Cutie in the morning Then Don/Donna's apparent girlfriend, the very light colored iguana and the other one, with the regrowing tail, both hung out with me on the wall.
The fourth iguana, a medium sized adult, took some worms I tossed to it and then skedaddled to the backyard scrap lumber pile where it lives, along with Cutie and the tiger whiptail.
The furthest one away in the photo is the very pale one that I'm calling Don/Donna's girlfriend. Note the regrowing tail tip on the closest one. It doesn't have the spots or banding of its original tail.

TW- reptiles
Went reptile-hunting near Bath, found 4 species - Common Lizard, Adder, Grass Snake and Slow Worm.
Sadly, the first three are now becoming scarce in the local area, in part due to habitat destruction, but also from non-native predators, including cats and especially Pheasants, which are released in large numbers around the outskirts of Bath. Pheasants will eat reptiles - even Adders!

A few minutes ago, I met a new iguana in the backyard, hanging out in the scrap wood pile. It was a little shy, but came within 2 feet to eat mealworms.
While I was sitting there, letting it get used to me, I asked its name. And that's when it occurred to me:
Lizards are desert fairies.
Shy, diminutive, mysterious creatures that come and go on their own agenda, willing to be friends if you can build their trust, but always a little leery of us. They often appear as if out of the blue and then disappear in an instant like magic. They can be nearly invisible until you learn how to see them. Not everyone can.
