This flowering vine blooms in the fall and attracts a lot of pollinators. I was looking for pollinators but found an anole instead. Most likely the lizard was also looking for pollinators but for a different reason.

Per Google Streetview, this awful thing was installed no earlier than April 2018 (i.e., it predates this picture by no more than a year). Weird!

Yea, as of April 2018 the fence extended all the way over to the wall.

"Please keep door closed when not in use, por favor mantenga la puerta cerrada cuando no esté en uso" reads the little door.

SREZ OVIUS BLAZEM!! and SAVIE CERTO BHB*420 were here, mocking this ridiculous object.

Even though its name is green anole, it can turn a variety of colors from green, yellow, tan and brown. More having to do with its emotions and stage of anxiety than trying to blend in. This one was fairly relaxed. On wrought iron fencing along the spillway parking lot.
