Each day we encourage our work study students to spend a few moments sitting still and observing. This week a student spied this undercover "Green" Anole aka Anolis carolinensis. We all enjoyed checking it out and wanted to share it with you! This particular specimen was dressed in yellow to match our flourishing Goldenrod. It's a great spot to hunt. Key stone species like Goldenrod support many parts of the food web, as they bring a buffet of insects to the table. Green Anoles like to hunt from high places and are often found on shrubby perennials, bushes, and trees. They are generally green or brown and do change color slightly depending on their mood or location. Next time you visit take a moment to be still and look. You never know what you'll find. #seeds #durhamnc #communitygarden #bullcity #nativeplants
