Scary LIzard

I am really afraid of lizards. I would probably drop like a stone if I came face to face with this beauty in the confines of a room. But they fascinate me with their colours and reptilian noses and ears. The colours on this one were particularly lovely and his pink mouth is almost scandolous in its pink-ness. Godspeed Lizard. Just not in my path

  1. If you have lizards in your garden, they are eating things that eat your garden. Awesome!

    My son had pet snakes and lizards. I like the lizards better than the snakes. I think yours is cute!

  2. I'd never thought I'd say this for a lizard but that one is beautiful!

  3. HI Everyone,
    Thanks for the comments. :)
    These lizards were shot when I passed through an exhibition at the Musuem of Natural History in New York at Christmas. They had a live exhibition up. Believe me, that's the only way I would get close enough to photograph them.
    We do have in the garden and I really like them because they eat mosquitoes and slugs etc.
    But we don't have exotic ones like Mr. Pink Mouth.
