An Ounce - For Your Consideration

The Indecisive Lizard


Listen Later

Here in the desert southwest, around the end of February and early March, as the sun lasts a little longer in the sky, the lizards begin to spend more time in my backyard.

I’ve got a story to tell you that may well have happened right there, as I soaked in some warmth on the back porch swing.

We have a block wall fence the lizards seem to enjoy crawling up on top of to take in the warmth. I watched one of them, only a few inches long, skittering about, up and down the wall, back and forth on the top of the wall.

Life is pretty simple for a lizard. Wake up when it’s warm and go out to find lunch. 

But this little guy was apparently not sure what to have for lunch. Should he go to the top of the wall to pick off a gnat, or down to the bottom and ambush an aphid? He hurried back and forth up and down the wall – don’t know that ever found anything to eat.

His inability to make a decision and stick with it became a bit of a problem. - Check it out!
