One reason why I don't like to stand too close to trees is you never know what wildlife you might unexpectedly find .
At one highway rest stop , I rested my palm against a small tree until I saw 2 beady eyes staring straight back at me ! It was a tree lizard and the body camouflage was so perfect , if I did not look closer at the bark I wouldn't even have gotten a fright of my life .
Ya I hate lizards . Hate hate hate hate hate 'em . And I almost fainted after seeing 2 small eyes right next to my hand !
