Description
A male Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei) is displaying his dewlap or throat fan while clinging to a branch in Estero Llano Grande State Park in Weslaco, Texas.
The brown anole, also known commonly as the Cuban brown anole, or De la Sagra's anolewas, was introduced in southern Florida from the Caribbean decades ago and is considered an invasive species in many parts of its habitat.
Anoles are active by day in warm weather and often bask in vegetation, occasionally charging away from a basking spot to grab and inset or chase off a rival anole. During cool weather anoles are often found hiding under tree bark, shingles, or in rotten logs.
