Moment at San Monique:
Can you see the crocodile?
Rock formations and colors draw me and hold my attention--I don't need cute names. But when I first noticed this formation, the crocodile jumped out at me, and my mind would not let go of that first impression.

When we arrived at our lodge on the banks of the Awash River and Falls in Ethiopia there were many crocodiles like this one basking on islands and at the river edge. Heavy overnight rain turned the water brown by next morning and all the crocodiles were submerged.
The saltwater crocodile is often claimed to be the largest living crocodilian. Males grow to a length of up to 6 m (20 ft), rarely exceeding 6.1 m (20 ft) or a weight of 1,000–1,075 kg (2,205–2,370 lb).
Females are much smaller and rarely surpass 3 m (9.8 ft). It is also known as the estuarine crocodile, Indo-Pacific crocodile, marine crocodile, sea crocodile or informally as saltie.
The saltwater crocodile is a large and opportunistic hypercarnivorous apex predator. It ambushes most of its prey and then drowns or swallows it whole.
It is capable of prevailing over almost any animal that enters its territory, including other apex predators such as sharks, varieties of freshwater and saltwater fish including pelagic species, invertebrates such as crustaceans, various reptiles, birds and mammals, including humans.

The Cuban crocodile is a small species of crocodile found only in Cuba. Unless you see one living in Gatorland, Florida where I saw this one. He had a very large place to roam and appeared to be enjoying the sunshine. His coloring was beautiful!
The brighter colors that the Cuban Crocodile features gain it plenty of attention. They have scales with a different appearance too – like it has small pebbles in it.
