My Patio garden Exterminator

This guy has been hangin' around my screened in patio since I set the seedlings out, and I think he is quite happy..I may need to grab a few more from outside and bring them inside the screen...I'm sure that he is helping me with the pest control...

That looks like a sub-species of Polychrotidae or "Anole". Possibly Cuban or maybe even Caribbean and typically used to strip the berries/fruit from invasive shrub like plants to prevent seeding and subsequently new growth.
 
I have one or two of those(lizards) myself every summer. Mine are usually bright green and I see no damage done by them. Love them! One of the best natural pesticides around.
