Iguanas


The north side of the condo complex beach is lined with a stone wall that juts out into the water about fifty feet. 
This is the home of at least five Iguanas that live in the cracks between the stones and come out to sun themselves on a regular basis.


They some times leave the wall and wander through our yard.  (You need to enlarge this picture and look close.)

They walk right down the sidewalk by the pool.

They even climb the buildings.

The other day Gail and I were standing by the pool talking with some friends when I saw this movement out of the corner of my eye and we heard this “thump”.  An Iguana had fallen off the ledge.  He hit the sand, shook himself off and walked away into the bushes.  They do not come close to people and are not a problem, but they certainly are ugly.
