Lizard Happiness

Travel too fast, and you miss all you are traveling for.

Iguana crawling

slowly over sunlit stone -

nowhere else to be.

With a curious little head tilt

alert and content.

You make me understand how wonderful it is for little lizards when they find that one special rock that's perfect for sunning themselves on. You make me lizard-happy.

The days are warmer and more lizards are out basking in the sun. I especially love watching them at the marina - some crawling openly, some hiding behind rocks and foliage, all keeping their heads high and alert; enjoying the warmth. I hope you are lizard-happy this week! It makes me happy to think so.

Thank you so much for being here.

Iguanas were not the only lizards I saw this week - these two little ones were a little more discrete, but still basking in sunlight.
