One afternoon last week Nikki was playing on the playground when she saw a chameleon. Nikki came and told the rest of us. The chameleon was on a stick so Laura picked it up and brought it up to our banda (cabin). After watching it for a while Laura decided she wanted to hold it. Luke held the chameleon after Laura. Luke said it felt like a bunch of tiny fingernails touching him.
We then put the chameleon down in some green grass and green leaves to see if it would turn green. It didn’t but it did change to a lighter color of brown. While we were watching it eat a bug about 6 inches away. The amazing thing is all 5 of us actually saw it. We then saw it eat 2-3 other bugs. We even got two of them on video.
While we were all huddled around this chameleon and aweing over it eating bugs one of our neighbors walks up and asks us what we are looking at. Fortunately she thought it was pretty cool too and took a few pictures. I must admit if someone was walking by and saw they probably would have thought we were watching something more exciting or exotic. We all thought it was pretty cool.
