Named after two battleships in the American Civil War, these
ironclad warships met in the Battle of the Hamptons in March 1862, the first battle involving ironclad ships.
The battle had immediate effects on navies around the world. The preeminent naval powers, Great Britain and France, halted further construction of wooden-hulled ships. Although Britain and France had been engaged in an iron-clad arms race since the 1830s, the Battle of Hampton Roads signaled a new age of naval warfare for the whole world. A new type of ironclad warship was produced on the principles of the original Monitor. The use of a small number of very heavy guns, mounted so that they could fire in all directions, was first demonstrated by Monitor and soon became standard in warships of all types.

Hope you have a great week ahead. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your support -- I greatly appreciate it. We have one more day in Moab before heading home thru Yosemite,

This one without a doubt was the largest one I've seen yet. Probably longer than 6 feet.
Wikipedia: The Asian water monitor (Varanus salvator) is a large varanid lizard native to South and Southeast Asia. It is one of the most common monitor lizards in Asia, ranging from coastal northeast India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, mainland Southeast Asia, and southern China to Indonesian islands where it lives close to water.
Conservation status: Least Concern

Der Kapwaran bewohnt Süd- und Ostafrika. Er bewohnt vor allem trockene Steppen und Savannen. Der Waran ist ein aktiver Beutegreifer, der züngelnd nach Nahrung sucht.
The rock monitor is a species of monitor lizard in the family Varanidae. The species is endemic to Central, East, and southern Africa. It is the second-longest lizard found on the continent, and the heaviest-bodied.
Monitor lizard feeding on a giant centipede, it was a struggle over minutes as the centipede was defending itself quite a bit but the lizard kept smashing it onto the ground until it was able to swallow it...Sungei Buloh Wetlands, Singapore
This land monitor (varanus bengalensis) raised its head nicely as I got closer to it. The animal's snout is a little muddy from foraging - its diet is varied, including mice, ants, fruit, frogs, spiders, scorpions and beetles. Photographed in Yala, near Kirinda, Sri Lanka.
The 'Sand Motor' is a unique experiment. An artificial peninsula of sand should automatically maintain the beaches up north. The idea is that the Gulf Stream moves the sand up north, a slow process that is carefully monitored by this pole. Notice the tiny figure underneath.

I am not sure if this is a monitor lizard - if someone knows about, please correct me!

These huge water monitor lizards can grow up to a length of 3 meters and are perfect swimmers. This one was swimming in swan lake of the Botanic Gardens in Singapore.
I've always found Northern Mocking birds at Lake Artemesia. This one might be a juvenile. They seem very protective of their territory and like perch and talk to you. This one seems to be keeping an eye on me.

California State Route 89 southeast of Lake Tahoe. We used this route to get to US 395 along the eastern Sierra. This photo is part of a series of photos taken during a recent trip to the Eastern Sierra.
This 4200 Report Monitor reel-to-reel tape recorder was manufactured by Uher factories in Munich in the early 1980s. It was primarily developed for professional use and was intended for use with 13 cm reels in half-track mode. The housing is made of robust die-cast aluminum, and in addition to numerous technical features, there were also many accessories, such as matching microphones, for use in interviews by reporters. The sound is excellent and enables perfect recordings in hi-fi quality! My device still works well and looks quite good.

Varanus glauerti grows up to 80 cm (31 in) long, and three-quarters of its length is the long tail.
This species consumes very little vertebrate prey, eating primarily invertebrates, especially millipedes, beetles, molluscs and orthopterans. Millipedes for example form nearly a quarter of their diet; the monitors are apparently resistant to its poisonous secretions.
original image
(Varanus Mertensi) Monitor lizards (from the Latin monere ‘to warn’) are so-called because of the way they raise their heads and upper body in an apparently watchful pose. As you see in the photo, the lizard does appear to be keeping a lookout. Mertens’ water monitors are found in coastal and inland waters across far northern Australia, from Broome to the western side of Cape York peninsula. They’re always near water, where they bask on rocks or overhanging branches, or amongst aquatic plants.
These lizards actually dig burrows at the water’s edge, where they shelter at night.
