I’m guessing this was a very hard shot to get because it is so perfect!
they are quite docile, slow and unafraid since there are no natural predators on the island. one of them almost snatched my camera bag and needed extra efforts (throwing stones, making noises) just to chase him away. 🙂
Great!
thanks elena!
Love this photo, with the monitor peeking through the lush green foliage!
thanks luann, most of them just got out of the jungle that morning to bask under the sun.
This is very cool.
Nice detail!
thank you pablo!
Super capture!!!
many thanks david.
Just perfect
thanks dear!
Great shot… WOW. Clear, colorful, and composition is great.
thank you scott!
I like his face 🙂
yeah, kinda friendly, but once you turn your back, he might grab anything resembling a food. 🙂 thanks judy!
Thanks for letting me camp out in your blog today. As always, I had a great time and tried to leave my campsite as clean as when I arrived.
do come again. thanks russel!
