Regal Iguana

This photo of a regal looking male iguana was captured at Fairchild Tropical Garden were quite a few of these "dragons" roam.

Having grown up in Miami, I took for granted the many beautiful locations such as Fairchild, Matheson Hammock, Viscaya, Parrot Jungle, the Keys and the Everglades National Park...just to name a few. Only today do I realize how fortunate I was to have grown up there during the 60's and 70's. Although still a beautiful city today, it has definitely undergone extraordinary growth and change. However, Fairchild is much as it always was...a wonderful location full of tropical plants where it is easy to upwind and take it easy.
