Ken, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife identifed this as a brown anole. It is classsified as a non-contolled species in Oregon and should not survey in the wild past mid fall or late summer when the nights start cooling down. This species is native to the West Indies and well established in Floridia and parts of Texas. Anoles are great escape artists, so it was most likely someone's pet.

Thanks for your report!
