This Blotched Blue Tongue lizard was just about to make a dash for the road, when we quickly moved him along. This shot was taken near Crookwell, NSW.
A typical sight in western NSW, and indeed, across southern inland Australia. Shingleback lizards dodge motor vehicles daily as they move around in search of mates, food and shelter. This one was crossing a fire trail in the mallee near the Kidman Way, Mount Hope, NSW, Australia. Click on “view larger” for better viewing.

The plumed basilisk also called a green basilisk, is a species of lizard native to Latin America. Its natural range covers a swath from Mexico to Ecuador. Plumed basilisks are omnivorous and eat insects, small mammals (such as rodents), smaller species of lizards, fruits and flowers. Their predators include raptors, opossums and snakes. The females of this species lay five to fifteen eggs at a time in warm, damp sand or soil. The eggs hatch after eight to ten weeks, at which point the young emerge as fully independent lizards. Males are very a single male may keep land containing a large group of females with whom he mates. This lizard is able to run short distances across water using both its feet and tail for support. Plumed basilisk males have three crests: one on the head, one on their back, and one on the tail. The females, however, only have one crest, on the head.

This is a common Lizard seen here in Texas, although he is quite elusive when the camera comes out. – Dennis

General information: Caiman Lizards are aquatic and terrestrial. They have powerful jaws, and use them to crush shelled insects, and then extract the soft parts using their flat, rounded teeth. Young caiman lizards may be eaten by birds and larger mammals. The name “caiman” comes from their appearance, which resembles the caiman alligators of South America. Heavily hunted for the reptile leather trade, hundreds of thousands of these lizards are killed each year for their skin.
A night shot I took here in Texas this summer…..
My friend, the iguana. He liked to hang out with me by the pool at the hotel Playa Azucar, in Costa Rica. Over my stay there he became quite curious about me… and stopped being afraid of me, He loved to watch me swim.
I was standing with my hand resting on this / wooden railing when I felt something on my hand. / Looking down I saw this little fellow, about 5” long. / He moved off my hand onto the wood and getting / my camera fired up I caught him just before he / scampered off. / Taken at the wetlands, near Cape Canaveral, Florida. Camera: Olympus Digital SP-570 UZ 26-520mm Lens.

Rock Agama Lizard at “The Giant’s Playground” near Keetmanshoop, Namibia. It is so called because of the marvellous balancing basalt rocks which look as if they have been placed there by giants. This lizard seems to prevent the rock from rolling off by using his tail.
