Galapagos – Iguana and lizard

Iguana and lizard

In this picture you can see a lizard sitting on a head of marine iguana. Doesn’t it look funny? When I saw for the first time iguana with a lizard on its head I was taking many pictures. Then, a few steps further, there was another iguana with lizard, and another, and another… Even in this picture, in the background, you can see a lizard sitting on iguana’s tail.

Just look carefully not to miss anything on your way, and enjoy everything you see. ๐Ÿ™‚

  1. Bardzo zgrany duet. Dobrze, ลผe jednej i drugiej stronie odpowiada taki ukล‚ad i mniejszy osobnik siedzi na gล‚owie wiฤ™kszego, a nie odwrotnie.

  2. Marine iguanas are cool lizards, they are the only lizard that forages in the sea eating exclusively inter- and subtidal algae primarily red algae. Although they didn’t impress Charles Darwin who called them disgusting and clumsy, and “imps of darkness”.

    The little guy on his head is a Lava Lizard are the most abundant reptile on the Galapagos Islands

    1. Thanks for your comment!
      Both animals are big part of ecosystem in Galapagos, and everyone will see them at least a few times ๐Ÿ™‚
      I agree marine iguanas are cool, but some of them look quite scary…

  3. The Galapagos Islands sound amazing, but unfortunately the lizards and iguanas are probably the reason I could never visit! I’m terrified of these creatures! I know they’re harmless, but I still can’t bring myself to get near them! Great capture, though! ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. That’s so funny! I wonder why they do that–maybe it’s for warmth? Either way, great shot!! Would love to explore the Galapagos!
