February 27, 2013

 Walking home this afternoon while chatting to a friend we spotted this Agama on the fence giving us the eye.  The late afternoon sun enhanced the beautiful colours of this creature.
It swung around giving us a view of the other side.  As it turned its head, we thought it was sticking out its tongue, but once the photos were downloaded, I realised that it had a damaged upper 'lip'
The photos that I posted on 12.12.2012 showed severe damage -  territorial fighting, perhaps?
 I need to add that although I own a tripod and a mono-pod, I had neither of them with me on this occasion.
Today I had the privilege of using a 'Pat-☺-pod' 
Thanks Pat for letting me balance my camera on your head....  what a sight we must have been!
