Sometimes we spend in the midst of our stress and our thoughts of all our problems that fill our heads in such a way that our eyes do not have the opportunity to see the beauty hidden in plain sight in our eyes.

I was climbing with my daughters on the outskirts of the ARISTIDES ROJAS park and in the midst of the problems God gave me and nature this June 13th a moment of tranquility when seeing a GREEN IGUANA so close, which She remained calm and allowed me to take a photo of her, but then she ran and quickly climbed a tree while looking at us.

When seeing one of these animals that are exclusively herbivorous animals, you should be careful because although they are not aggressive and will always choose to flee rather than attack, if they are cornered they have sharp claws and their tail will be used as a whip to defend themselves. So you have to be careful and as long as you just appreciate it and take photos of it and don't try to grab it, everything is fine.

These animals are very good at camouflage so discovering them is very difficult, so seeing them here is a matter of luck and looking very carefully.

What do you think? I look forward to your comments and suggestions.

Thanks for this entry. It´s a very special one for me as I love iguanas, they are one of my very favorite animals. When I lived in Mexico, I used to observe them every single day. Fascinating creatures. But those in Mexico are mostly the black spiny-tailed iguanas (Ctenosaura Similis). I dedicated many posts to them. The green iguanas are not so common over there but I saw them too ;)
