Green iguanas are an invasive species. Their normal range is from Brazil to Mexico. Due to the pet trade they have spread throughout Florida, Texas, and Hawaii. Growing to about 5 feet long they can undermine sidewalks and foundations with their burrowing. I saw more of them than ever on our recent visit to Florida. They do make an interesting photo subject, however, with their wildly patterned scales and colors.
In my neck of the woods, summers are brown, and winters are green. This little green niche is a lovely spot down by the creek.
This was one of my favorite birds on our S. Texas trip this January. They are common birds in that part of the country, but so exotic to our eyes. Three of the five days spent in the Lower Rio Grande valley were cloudy, so this ended up being one of many low-light images. The tripod was invaluable.

Various plants in the arboretum in Rogów. It's nice to walk there among this greenery :)
The Rogów Arboretum, established in 1925, is the Station of Protection and Shaping of Forest Ecosystems. It covers an area of 54 ha and is of an exceptional character as compared with other centers of the type in Poland or Europe, because it has been built from the very beginning as a research – didactic object and, moreover, it was located in the forest and has been tightly connected with the forest experimental study from the moment of its origin. The Arboretum consists of three basic parts: the dendrological collections (about 22 ha), the forest experimental plots (about 18 ha) and the alpine garden (1.5 ha).
The dendrological collections that is tree and shrub individuals planted either separately or in groups or small area forms, are mainly concentrated in the central and southern part of the Arboretum, covering a total of 2350 species and varieties. The Arboretum’s specialty is its collection of maples and shrubs from China. This segment is managed naturally, having the look of more a forest park than a typical botanical garden. The trees give the shelter and the proper microclimate for the introduced trees and shrubs.

Bujna roślinność w arboretum w Rogowie. Miło tak spacerować tam wśród zieleni :)
Arboretum w Rogowie – należy do grupy najcenniejszych, najbogatszych w gatunki i odmiany drzew i krzewów tego typu ogrodów w Europie. Położony jest w dawnym siedlisku leśym i ma charakter parku leśnego. Od początku istnienia (1925 r.) podlega pod Wydział Leśny SGGW. Na jego obszarze znajdują się jedne z najbogatszych i najciekawszych kolekcji drzew i krzewów Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej. Najchetniej odwiedzanym miejscem w ogrodzie jest alpinarium. Oprócz wyniesionych na 2 m ponad poziom gruntu skalniaków, założono tu ciąg strumyków, kilka oczek wodnych i 5-arowy staw z wyspą. W rogowskim alpinarium można obejrzeć ponad 400 gatunków i odmian roślin, pochodzących z gór całego świata. W większości są to byliny, ale nie tylko. Rosną tu także krzewy i drzewa terenów górzystych, np. majestatyczne świerki serbskie, kształtne limby czy srebrzyste jodły kalifornijskie.

I had a few others from this photo walk but I liked this one. Good timing for green photos since it is beginning to transition to fall color in my area. HMM and thanks for any views, faves, and comments.
The green-tailed towhee is the smallest towhee, but is still one of the larger members of the American sparrow family Passerellidae. Its breeding range covers most of the interior Western United States, with a winter range in Mexico and the southern edge of the Southwestern United States.
Thanks to everyone that views and comments on my images - very much appreciated.

Green Heron is a small species among the members of the Herons family, and has distinctive colouring with greenish wings and back and a rich chestnut neck area. This individual was hunting in a wetland of Fish Creek Provincial Park in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
This Green Heron just couldn’t decide: ‘Should I stay or should I go?’ He would stretch his neck up, begin to leave then compress that magical slinky neck down and relax for a few seconds before doing it again. Finally, he stretched his neck way out and took to the air. Green Herons are often amusing, chasing each other around, making strange sounds, fishing from low branches or from the air and working that magical neck. Lots of fun. I’ll be offline for a bit but wanted to wish everybody a wonderful New Year. See you in ’25! (Butorides virescens) (Sony a1ii, 400mm, f/2.8, 1/3200, ISO 1600)
Todays adventure was at the West Regional Wetlands here in Vero Beach. This Green Heron decided to stay and pose for a picture. Great day!

That's an older photo from May – back when we still had rain and it wasn’t as hot as it is now.

A "Happy Smile on Saturday" 😊

Many thanks for all your views, faves and comments.
Nothing sums up the joys of spring to me more than the unique green of the first Beech leaves as they unfurl! They often look more dramatic in the suns rays, but this cloudy shot somehow sums up their beauty more I think! How can such a hard shiny leaf start out so soft and delicate! Green gloves by the National is a great description!
