Our little green friend...

Just the other afternoon, John and I were headed out to run some errands and as we stepped outside onto the porch, this little green dude was sitting there waiting for us.

Our new friend was almost three inches long, an inch high and I believe he lost his back leg in some sort of scuffle...probably a narrow escape from a bird, a large lizard or my neighbor's rambunctious children. We took a few pictures and then left him in peace on the porch.  

He was gone by the time we returned...
