Awwww... They're so adorable! They kind of remind me of young frogs size wise. It's amazing how many creatures live on this earth, right under our noses! It must have been difficult to spot these little guys, given their size haha.

Over hill and under tree, through lands where never light has shone.
By silver streams that run down to the sea.

Re: New Species of Chameleon discovered
Chameleons are great, my friend used to have two until one got really old & died then the other died a few days later. Really interesting animals though... it would be interesting to find a tiny chameleon staring at you.
