Some wild Florida lizards

An excellent photo of a common Ameiva (spelling?)
Not my photo.
I believe this is a female because of the relatively drab coloration.
These are very fast. And can look like green iguanas to the untrained eye.

That is a neat looking lizard.

Just saw this. Beautiful! We have Ameiva dorsalis here...they are kind of mottled irredescent blue and lightning fast. They are becoming increasingly rare and I am very concerned about their continued existence! Habitat loss due to overdevopment.
