I heard some rustling sounds on a walk through the Singapore Botanical Garden mid afternoon.
I was surprised to find this monitor lizard searching for food around the base of a tree.
On closer look, I can see it is still moulting. I quickly took a shot before it slithered away.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and faves...it is always appreciated..
Peaceful Travel Tuesday
Smokey has been awakened by the rustling of grocery bags.
Happy Caturday!
For the Happy Caturday Group 1/22/2022 theme "Black & White".
Wikipedia: The clouded monitor (Varanus nebulosus) is a species of monitor lizard, native to Burma, Thailand and Indochina to West Malaysia, Singapore, Java, and Sumatra. They are excellent tree climbers. It belongs to the subgenus Empagusia along with the Bengal monitor, the Dumeril's monitor and other monitor lizards. It had previously been listed as a subspecies of Varanus bengalensis by some herpetologists. It is a diurnal monitor.
Ecology Asia: This is a medium-sized monitor which can reach 1.5 metres in total length, but specimens of this size are uncommon. Similar in appearance to the Malayan Water Monitor Varanus salvator, it is distinguished by the position of the nostrils which lie mid-way between the eye and snout.
Its colouration comprises yellow spots on a brown-grey base. This mainly terrestrial species can be found in habitats as diverse as scrubland and rainforest, but is generally encountered as it digs amongst leaf litter searching for beetles and other insects. It may also be spotted clinging high up on tree trunks or exploring tree holes: its sharp claws make it an excellent climber.
This species occurs in Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore, Java and Sumatra.
Monitor lizard is a reptile with a long scaly body, movable eyelids, a long tapering tail and four legs, typically living in a hot dry region.

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ EYES PEELED ON THE BARKLY ♥
A recently hatched and so cute baby Sand Monitor (Varanus gouldii) maintains a vigilant watch for any cues indicating an overhead raptor while basking on a desert sandplain on the Barkly Tableland in the NT. Out here, young lizards are on the menu of just about every organism that can swallow them. Consequently, mortality rates are through the roof. Newborn/recently hatched lizards like this specimen that are undergoing dispersal and finding their feet, so to speak, are particularly vulnerable to predation.
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.

Sorry if I'm a bit behind in commenting for the next few weeks but baby bat season has now started 😊
These two plus the other three that decided the roost was too hot and needed some fresh air were all safely returned to their mothers.We stayed and monitored the roost until the day had cooled down and had no more fell out.Had no more calls so hopefully now the temperature is lower they will stay away from the entrance 😉

Kruger National Park
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.

Came across this fella when out looking for spiders. A bit bigger than my usual photographic subjects nowadays( 3 to 5 mm), he was over a meter in length and seemed to have just shed his old skin as his colours were brilliant.
Minutes later he had shot up a nearby tree.
