There's no red-headed stepchildren in the agama's family, because only the head of the tribe gets to show off all of his brilliant colors while the rest of his family has to settle for dulled versions of the rainbow. These African lizards average only about nine inches long, but their bright colors and big personalities are hard to miss.
Color
Commonly called the rainbow lizard, the red-headed agama's crimson crown is just the start of his display. While females and non-dominant males are not so brightly colored, a breeding male has a red or orange head, blue body and a tail that can be either red, deep blue or striped turquoise. The male's colors intensify during breeding season. They also change when he's contemplating a fight with another male. Preceding a fight, his head turns brown and white spots appear on his body. Females and young males are typically brown or olive green with a white belly, and a head that is slightly different color than their body.
Social Organization
Dominant male red-headed agamas establish a territory and govern a group of ten to 20 females and juveniles within the territory. Subordinate males, if allowed to remain, must be submissive to the male leader, such as allowing him the choice spot for basking in the sun. Males fight for territory and control of the group, with the winner gaining the right to breed with the females.
"The M2A4 Slammer UP is the urban purpose variant of the M2A1 Slammer. Compared to the base version, it features heavier armor with reinforced rear of the tank and a remote-controlled turret. This weight increase had to be compensated somewhere - M2A4 is fitted with a less powerful 105mm cannon compared to the 120mm of the base Slammer." ARMA wiki description of the M2A4.
From a sunrise shoot yesterday with fellow flickr tog and good friend Archie McCafferty at Burwood Beach, NSW; Australia.
We soon discovered this old set of train wheels (there used to be a local colliery and rail line connecting the mine to the Port of Newcastle).
The wheels had been relocated to this spot following recent big seas.
Thanks for any views, comments or favorites on any of my images.

I had the opportunity to stop by one of my favorite places over the weekend in Colorado Springs. It overlooks this beautiful place from above. At the right time the rocks seem to glow red under the rays of the sun. It's truly one of my favorite places to stop at. It tends to get a little busy as it's a popular spot and it's probably been photographed a million times! You'll still find me there when I chance to be in the neighborhood ;) I hope you here at Flickr have been well. I haven't been on as much as I'd like but when I do I garner so much inspiration from the pictures in my feed. It's like taking a hot luxurious bubble bath. You don't do it often enough and wonder "why not!?" as you soak in the warmth and comforting water. Trying to get better about posting here! My photography goals have changed a bit - I recently was assigned bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy and that has changed a little bit of how much I get out. Just a little bit. But I have been busy with personal goals for growth even if it involves more home type shots.

So after screwing up and not catching the M-TPTP with a standard cab GP60 leading the local back to Topeka, I had to settle for this EMD SD70ACe that looks way worse on the sides that it does on the nose. Single unit did sound nice hauling this train that appears to be the M-KSTP.
Looks like today's sunshine did a great job in melting all of the snow from "Snowmageddon" earlier this week. Too bad this was the only train that I shot in today. Something about having a job.
Maybe Saturday...

The trees are finding beginning to turn in the Midwest. This tree was shot on the John Hauberg Estate in Rock Island, IL.
Concentration- Everyone has deep emotions that are bottled up inside of them, whether its a lot or a little. People hid what the feel sometimes good or bad. Every emotion has a color that coincides with the emotion. For instance black goes with fear. Like fear of the unknown. A monochromatic picture of the color with the person holding their bottled up emotion filled with that color and filled with how much of the emotion they are bottling up inside.

I liked how the goslings were perfectly lined up for this capture :)

66718 - 'Sir Peter Hendy' gets away from Llandudno Junction 33minutes late with the 6Z59 for Bescot Downside. 27th February.
With a green showing for Platform 1 a position was taken, only to find it was to go through Platform 2 which meant a quick change of position which resulted in this rather hurried take!.
