Another lizard bites the dust!

Another back yard wild reptile got caught inside my attempt to protect the tiny seeds that will one day a huge garden of Texas born jalapeno pepper plants. I find it hard to deal with any living creature being cut short their life because of a man made thing like a bird netting cover. It was supposed to be designed just to keep the birds out and let the jalapeno pepper seeds germinate and sprout then I was going to remove the netting from the surface and put it on as a canopy over the frame work on top of the tomato plants to keep birds away. Evey time I do use the stupid netting it ends up killing another miniature dinosaur. You see I believe that over the millions of years, the dinosaur devolved into a smaller version of it's once gigantic ancestors into what we now see as the common birds of flight we often take for granted, and the now existing crockadile, alligator, and smaller reptiles like the horn toad lizard and geiko lizard and the turtle. I may not use the netting and just wait for the tomatoes to become green and lightly turn red and try to pick them early before they attract the modern day dinosaur, the birds. They like tomatoes too. and I should not mind that they will by their own nature eat some but please, leave me a few as I enjoy the flavor of home grown garden fresh, organic, not tampered or DNA altered, tomatoes. Here is a link to the picture I took of the frame with the bird netting over the tomatoes I recently planted in one of my tiny backyard gardens:
