Big iguana is watching you
I spotted this iguana lounging in the tree, perfectly still but fully aware of my presence. Its golden eye followed my every move, as if deciding whether I was a threat or just another part of the jungle. With its rough, scaly skin and spiky crest, it looked ancient—blending in yet impossible to miss. Such a beautiful symbol of biological adaptation and biodiversity.
