female, Boscombe, Dorset. The warm summer should have done the population of these unarguably attractive lizards some good, for better or for worse as far as the native wildlife is concerned...
Taken at Lanquin, Guatemala, on 10.11.14.
I'm not sure about the ID - it was found active on the mountains.
Inspired by the excellent green lizard photos by yellowvanman (Keith Mantle) I decided to have a look myself - I only found one but this youngster was having an interesting time trying to swallow a de-shelled garden snail (Cornu aspersum). I didn't see how it had removed the shell, sadly, nor did I see it actually swallow the giant marshmallow of a prey item, as it retreated into the gorse after 10 minutes of chewing and then dropping the prey.

A day of flirtation... everything wants to play peek a boo with me. And... camera in hand... I'm game.
I should know by now that when I ask whoever or whatever wants to be seen by the world to let me know... he or she does. And it's not always a flower! Today three gorgeous creatures vied for my attention and my lens... a baby Iguana, a Giant Swallowtail and a squirrel! And they each sat... in one position or another... for 30 or so shots!

I wouldn't have seen him if he hadn't poked his head up and looked at me!
Well camouflaged but too curious not to be noticed! Seems to be a characteristic of this lovely tropical beauty! Check out the one on the bromeliad below.

A striking green iguana captured in a moment of calm, resting on a branch under soft, directional light.
Photographed at the ZooParc de Beauval (France), this image highlights the reptile’s vivid green tones and textured scales with precision and depth.
Shot with a telephoto lens to enhance background separation and draw full attention to the subject.
Everything aligned for this portrait – light, texture, detail, and composition.
Any feedback or constructive criticism is very welcome – I’d love to improve and grow.
A lovely Green lizard crossed our path whilst we were walking around the Étang des Belettes - Charente - France

Lizards are reptilian, often four-legged, cold-blooded, with an integumentary system comprising scales, with a skull composed of quadrate bones. Lizards also possess external ears and movable eyelids. Encompassing forty families, there is tremendous variety in color, appearance and size. Many lizards can change color in response to their environments or in times of stress. This is the Ocellated Lizard , a genus of lizard sometimes regarded as a subgenus of Lacerta, both of which belong to the family of Lacertidae, the wall lizards.
My son noitice this little fellow between one of the rocks of Punta Chiappa.
De parelhagedis (Timon lepidus) is de grootste Europese hagedis uit de familie echte hagedissen. De parelhagedis kan bijna een meter lang worden inclusief staart en is dan vaak erg zwaar en fors. Er zijn ruim 3000 verschillende soorten hagedissen, die meestal hetzelfde bouwplan volgen: een lange staart, vier gebogen poten, waardoor de buik over de grond sleept, en een kenmerkende schedel. De vorm en de plaatsing van de neusgaten, gehoororganen en ogen is onmiskenbaar. M'n zoon zag deze zitten tussen de rotsen van Punta Chiappa.
