Cool! When do you see them? Morning or early evening? They normally won't be out during the hotter part of the day except on cool days in the Winter months. They like to soak up the warmth from the asphalt surfaces.
In my younger days I'd be falling off the bike to try to catch them...
Wildlife must be on the move for some reason. Connie saw a deer in velvet walking through the yard just a half an hour ago. Seemed to be sampling the grape vine new growth where we cleared the underbrush, and not in any real hurry to move along.
