Like the dog with a juicy bone looking at his reflection back in the water

Indeed Christopher, do you think a chameleon would recognize itself in a mirror, or maybe try blend in, cheers David

Thanks Andrea, I was reading Tanias chameleon poem, and it got me thinking would a chameleon try disguise itself from its own reflection, or would it fall in love with itself, and disappear, cheers David
