Garden Defenders: Beneficial Predators

Because I garden organically, there is much wildlife activity in my garden. Anoles are everywhere, especially in the front yard. On the day I took this photo, about a week or so ago, I was surrounded by them in the beds. Babies everywhere! This was my favorite of the shots I got that day. This little guy, or perhaps gal due to the more subdued coloring, decided that this batch of irises was theirs...

(That's an Iris 'Thunderbird' by the way...)

Reptiles and amphibians in your garden are a sign of ecosystem health. When they are abundant you know you are doing something right!
