I didn’t see this anole (Anolis carolinensis) doing any pushups, so maybe it’s a female.
I saw remarkably few birds on our walk yesterday. Maybe the (mostly) hardwood stands offer so little food, they’re barren of birdlife.
Speaking of a lack of resources, I’m worried that our current economic downturn is going to hit a bunch of people hard—people who don’t know how to live poor, either psychologically or the tricks and techniques for eating cheaply, scrambling for necessities, and the like. Which will make it worse for all of us.

Agreed about the economy (you must’ve seen my rant), however, I’m not sure that I’m not one of those who *doesn’t* know how to live poor. Sounds stupid, but.
On a lighter note, we got the kids five anoles back when Liz was in about 5th grade. The last of them died a rather astounding six years later.
