I'd be surprised if even the cats could actually catch a whole one.
Possibly the twiching tail.
Little green frogs from the neighbour's pond spend whole days being
caught by the cats and returned by us to the pond. So far the only
dead frog was discovered on the pillow next to my wife's head one
morning. The cats must have seen the Godfather.
Lizards are significantly more agile than frogs.
and a lot rarer, I've lived here for 38 years and never seen one, not
even in the local dunes. I have seen a rare three legged tortoise in
our garden. I saw lizards in Hampshire when I was a kid.
If I visit Rome or Greece I see one within an hour of arriving. In
French Guyana I had one in my hotel room.
Lizards live in stone walls in Jersey and I've often seen them basking in
the sun in the Mont Orgueil area. Now what I *really, really* want are
Geckoes....... ;-)
