Golden Scales, Golden Encounter

Hello my dear friends! I got a glimpse of this Iguana during my noontime trip to a farm lot and I can’t help myself but to capture a shot of this amazing creature. What took my interest to this golden reptile is its vivid and shiny scales perfectly aligned, like beads meticulously woven on a fabric. I asked the caretaker why it is not moving and he said that it is a cold-bloodied reptile and since it was noontime, the Iguana just laid there still and head’s up as it loves the heat of midday and sun-bathing to regulate its body temperature. The caretaker also shared a fun fact about his pet, the Iguana is a picky eater and strictly vegetarian. Well, that explains the cucumber slices and melon rind I saw beside its cage.. haha. If only the Iguana can speak, I think I know what it will say: “Eat healthy”.
