On Saturday morning, I was out watering my plants. As I was putting water into my little pitchers on my Pitcher Plant, out pops a little head. Now, let me tell you, I am normally squeamish around lizards. I thought, wow, am I glad that I hadn't put water in the pitcher. What would I have done if that little lizard had jumped out on me? I am sure that anyone looking would have thought, "that lady is having a fit!" Then I get my breath back and think oh, that is cool. Then I realize after talking to my husband, that it would be good to have a lizard living in my plant. He said that they eat bugs, which is great, except that the main reason for a Pitcher Plant is for catching bugs. Well, this lady is going to let the lizard live and he can help take care of the bugs on that particular plant.
I went out again this morning to see if he was still there and yes, he was still there and I had my camera ready this time when he poked his out. I know this is crazy, but I think that I could enjoy having lizards live within my plants. Just as long as they respect my space and don't jump on me. Then I might have to rethink. So if anyone has any name for my lizard, let me know. I thought that I would let my grand-daughters have a look and see what name they can give.

He's too cute! If my vote counts, I think you should name him Carni since he is living in a carniverous plant!
ReplyDeleteThank you for making my day with your comment. That name will be put in the pot. Love you, Mother
ReplyDeleteI think you should name him Lenny. Lenny the lizard. Your blog page looks great. I am going to need to get mine going. Your background looks good. How did you find it?
ReplyDeleteThanks! You and Amy need glasses...it's spelled just like I thought I did, Carni. I do like her name better though. Good night and I love you!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great blog! I'm here by way of wonderful Mandy. I must say, I just about fell over when I saw those baby butts succulents. They DO look just like those! Hahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteOkay, this cutie patootie lizard.... Umm... Babe? As in Babe Ruth who also started out in (as) a pitcher? I know, groan. :)
LOVE the roses in your background!
Hi Sherree! My name is Candy and I am a blog friend of Mandy's. I have a blog too and just turned 53. I love succulents also. Your blog looks great! And how cool is that lizard living in your pitcher plant. I wonder what he does in the pitcher. Maybe there is sweet sticky stuff inside that he likes. I think Bella's name is great. Great comparison!
ReplyDeleteThis is to everyone that was so kind and left me a comment. I am still learning how to do this blog thing. So I will have to once again have my Mandy walk me through some more. I am not sure how to contact each one of you and tell you thanks for the comments. You all have made my day.
