Green Anole Ingesting Fishfly

Copyright © Lewis Scharpf

Ingesting a Spring Fishfly (Chauliodes rastricornis)
The length of this insect was approximately 45 mm.
The length of the anole was approximately 120 mm.
It was amazing to witness this small lizard catch and devour such a large insect.

Wow! Great timing! I wonder if they can digest the wings.
