Creeping critters

  There are a few critters here that I was happy to see in person. Today I was more fortunate than happy. We were picking up a pile of leaves and there was a scorpion. I had gloves on, but Ron didn't. He was a small brown scorpion about the length of my thumb, and very skinny. It was kind of cool.
I've seen 4 types of lizards/iguanas. Geckos lurk around the house, they have a sound like a chirp. An impressively loud chirp for something the size of my pointer finger. A decent sized lizard comes out on the same log next door, every morning. It's mostly grey, I named her Carmelita. I've seen green iguanas of all sizes, and I love them. And I saw on good sized blue lizard, with part of its tail missing.
  One night we saw an armadillo across the street. I didn't even know I should be looking for them.
After a good rain you can see squished frogs on the roads, perfectly flat. I've seen 2 different types around here. I am currently on the back porch and there is a tropical downpour. So maybe tonight we can go looking for frogs. It's raining so loud, it would be difficult to have a normal conversation. But it won't last long. Just cool things down wonderfully. I love this kind of rain!

Here are some iguanas.
