Baby Boom

Babes abound in the garden lately.  I started noticing after finding this egg shell under the grapefruit tree:

To give you an idea of the egg’s truly tiny size, here it is next to an Eggland’s Best large egg.

Although the egg doesn’t seem tiny enough to be a lizard egg, in the few days since finding it, I’ve been spotting itty-bitty lizards everywhere.  They’re surprisingly cute with their bright eyes and stumpy little bodies.  This one is only about two inches from head to tail.

Check out those toes!  She reminds me of my black lab when he was a puppy.  Everyone used to say, “Oh boy, look at those paws!”  Bobo grew to be a hundred pounds.  Going off those two snaggle-toes in the hind, Little Liz’ should grow to be ten grams at least!
