Camouflage

We have been putting together our lapbooks on the rainforest and so much of the info is about how the animals and plants and birds and insects camouflage to be safe from predators. Pretty cool. though we don't live in the rain forest we found an animal in our back yard that camouflages to hide itself too.

This little guy was about 10 inches long head to tail. Though they move slow we had a very hard time getting this photo. T.J. eventually caught him and paraded him around the yard on a stick until he missed a crack in the patio and fell headlong onto the pavement. OUCH!! the Chameleon got away. I bet he (the chameleon) was relieved. :)
