This morning I noticed a little lizard--one of the horde--following a small spider across the lanai floor. The lizard would close in behind the spider and the spider would scoot away and off to the side. The lizard turned and caught up. The spider scurried and sidestepped.
This went on for over a minute. Around and around. The lizard could have pounced on the spider easily (I've seen them leap). The spider knew the lizard was there. When the lizard stopped going after it, the spider simply walked away in a straight line.
Was the lizard just investigating the spider? Do lizards have such a thing as curiosity? Was it playing?
I have no idea.
