Anoles spend a lot of time chasing each other up and down our the drying bamboo poles. This year they were very very plentiful in our grove of golden bamboo (Phyllostachy aurea) I think it may have been because we had a very mild previous winter.

Now it's winter again, and no anoles are to be seen.
They're burrowed in the bamboo leaf litter, waiting for spring...
Here's some website about Anoles ...
