I was lying prone and this lass crawled straight towards my camera lens - I wasn't sure if it was the sound of my electronic focus sounding like an insect ? - Hankley

Anybody know if lizards use sound to cue onto prey ?

i thought that they use vibrations to sense where inverts are. i watched a captive common lizard move slowly into a cricket that was behind a large log that it had no way of seeing round. it just shot round and took its strike and it was gone.

nice
