Lizards huddle together on homeowner’s window to ‘shelter from cold’ in Florida

A homeowner has shared footage of a group of lizards huddling together to “shelter from the cold” in Florida.

The homeowner captured the four lizards and a tree frog seeking shelter behind the window shutters of their home.

The footage also captures the homeowner’s dog watching the reptiles.

As lizards are cold-blooded, they spend the winter months hibernating.

Lizards maintain their body heat using their surroundings. As a result, the weather makes it difficult for them to survive the winter. They often hibernate inside a rotting log or under deep crevices in rock.
