Applied the LR AI noise reduction to this ISO 1600 hand held captured taken at the park, and the results there on the cannon details are worth viewing large.

Der Grüne Leguan (Iguana iguana) ist ein Vertreter der Leguane (Iguanidae), dessen Lebensraum in Mittelamerika und Südamerika liegt. Grüne Leguane erreichen für gewöhnlich eine Kopfrumpflänge von 45 Zentimetern. Mit dem Schwanz zusammen erreichen sie Längen von zwei Metern, manchmal 2,2 Metern. Sie werden in Gefangenschaft gut 10 bis 17 Jahre alt, es wurde aber schon von Tieren berichtet, die 25 Jahre alt wurden. Der bevorzugte Lebensraum sind Tieflandwälder in der Nähe größerer Gewässer. Grüne Leguane sind ausgesprochene Flachlandbewohner und überschreiten fast nie die Höhengrenze von 1000 Metern. Sie sind primär baumbewohnend und gute Kletterer, können aber auch gut schwimmen. Sie sind ausschließlich pflanzenfressend (Wikipedia).
The green iguana (Iguana iguana), also known as the American iguana, is a large, arboreal, mostly herbivorous species of lizard of the genus Iguana. It is native from southern Brazil and Paraguay as far north as Mexico, and have been introduced from South America to Puerto Rico and are very common throughout the island, where they are colloquially known as gallina de palo ("bamboo chicken" or "chicken of the trees") and considered an invasive species. It grows to 1.5 metres (4.9 ft) in length from head to tail, although a few specimens have grown more than 2 metres (6.6 ft) with bodyweights upward of 20 pounds (9.1 kg). Agile climbers, Iguana iguana can fall up to 50 feet (15 m) and land unhurt. Iguanas use their hind leg claws to clasp leaves and branches to break a fall (Wikipedia)

♀️ Stilpnia heinei
(Black-capped Tanager / Tangara capirotada)
Black-capped Tanagers (Stilpnia heinei) are vividly-colored tropical birds that occur from Venezuela to Ecuador. This species is primarily found in montane forest edges, at forest clearings (natural as well as man-made), and in tall second-growth forest. Black-capped Tanagers often occur in pairs and sometimes in mixed-species flocks, foraging in bushes and trees for insects and fruit.
It is one of the few species in the genus that shows obvious sexual dichromatism, with males primarily gray-blue in color with a distinctive black cap, and females yellow-green without a black cap.

Green Sandpiper - Tringa Ochropus
Norfolk
It breeds across subarctic Europe and Asia and is a migratory bird, wintering in southern Europe, the Indian Subcontinent, Southeast Asia, and tropical Africa. Food is small invertebrate items picked off the mud as this species works steadily around the edges of its chosen pond.
This is not a gregarious species, although sometimes small numbers congregate in suitable feeding areas. Green sandpiper is very much a bird of freshwater, and is often found in sites too restricted for other waders, which tend to like a clear all-round view.
It lays 2–4 eggs in an old tree nest of another species, such as a fieldfare (Turdus pilaris). The clutch takes about three weeks to hatch.
The green sandpiper is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) applies. Widely distributed and not uncommon, it is not considered a threatened species by the IUCN on a global scale.

Continuing with some bird images from our first two trips of 2022. I started with a couple of waders and then a couple waterfowl. Now moving on to passerines and adding some color. This Green Jay was found in Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge in South Texas.
The species ranges mostly in South and Central America, but the population has stretched into Southern Texas.
