Still have lots of pics to put up, but I think it better to sort out the iguanas separately in case they creep people out, so this is just a few non-iguana pics. IF you click on any of these pics, it'll take you to my Ipernity where I've added notes to the pics.

There are 2 species of iguana in the park- hard to tell them apart because they are very variable in color and spine length, etc. The black spiny tailed iguana and the green iguana seem to live amiably together-- don't know if they could/would/do hybridize, but if they do that would make it even more confusing. The green iguana is extremely variable in color- I *think* the orange color indicates a male in breeding condition- and I *think* it's only the adult green males that develop a large round disk on the throat, and I *think* it's only the black spiny tail who can have rings of bumps around their tails, and I *think* the females of both species have shorter spines on the neck/back but I woudn't bet on being right on any count.

If you click on any pic it'll take you to Ipernity where I've added notes to the pics.

There are some in this post that I *think* are black spiny tailed iguanas. And there are 3 baby iguanas, but I have even less idea what species the babies are.
