Iguana iguana
Quick story about Iguana. Many moons ago I accompanied my son and a few of his 7th grade classmates to Guyana. We were in the Amazon forest being cared for by a very nice woman and a woodsman who would lead us to find snakes and other critters in the forest. The woman asked me if I would like Iguana for dinner and I said “Sure, I’ll try it.” She brought some to the camp, which had no electricity or refrigeration of any type. The Iguana were on the ground with their legs were tied behind their back. I asked our caretaker if the meat would spoil if it wasn’t cooked that day. She laughed and informed me that they Iguana were very much alive and would keep for days. The kids heard that and next thing I knew the Iguana were set free. I can honestly say I was not disappointed.
With that diversion aside, this guy was changing positions in the snag at Green Cay and gave me this interesting pose in the strong morning light. (Green Iguana with a most creative scientific name: Iguana iguana) (Sony a1, 400mm, f/2.8, 1/1600 second, ISO 640)
