Oh man....I think I would have collapsed and needed smelling salts to revive me if that was near me let alone a CORPSE! Okay...I'm calm now. Yep...I'm a huge chicken. But man alive! That is one scary reptile. I suppose this is what you get when you don't live in a metropolis. Good for you for not being a huge sissy like me. xoxoxoxo--One of 365oneof365https://www.blogger.com/profile/01900535485592932858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834521079833788561.post-31914894457902487442009-10-14T08:25:25.548+03:002009-10-14T08:25:25.548+03:00Dear Cheryl,

Everyday is filled with surprises! <br /><br />I suppose that it's the same in other places, but since we've been here on Corfu we've reclaimed our childhood sense of wonder and expectation of mystery in our days. (AND it's been ten years!)<br /><br /><br />Dear Viv, <br /><br />I'd only seen green lizards this big... never the agamas. The biggest one I'd seen to date was about half this size. (they are rather prehistoric, aren't they?) The other bizarre but charming lizard-like creatures we have are the chameleons, but I haven't seen a big one for a couple of years.truestarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00147210730080999426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834521079833788561.post-79140846765251097612009-10-14T01:22:08.469+03:002009-10-14T01:22:08.469+03:00What an amazing creature!

No, but sad for the poor little guy to have apparently passed away stuck to a branch.

That actually WAS my first thought but...Dear Rosie-<br />That actually WAS my first thought but if you click on any of the pictures you'll notice that close up he's starting to fall apart....<br /><br />Though they look fierce, they're related to Iguanas and pretty mild mannered.<br /><br />(We decided to give him a final rest and put him in the burn pile. He'll have a "vikings funeral" like in Beau Geste...)<br /><br /><br />Dear Gaelikaa, <br />Apart from the first shiver that all reptiles seem to naturally provoke in this warm blooded creature, I have to say that when T came to the door with him on the stick and he "seemed" so tame, I thought "WOW. What an incredible thing to have this great beast live in our garden!" (then of course I found out he was actually dead.)<br /><br /><br />Dear Ayak,<br /><br />I am totally baffled as to what could have done him in - in that pose!?? <br /><br />We had a huge bolt of lightening blow out the satellite - perhaps the back pressure stunned him or something. That's the most bizarre yet plausible answer I came up with!<br /><br />At first when I realized he was dead it crossed my mind that perhaps someone had thrown a taxidermied agama over the fence- That thought of course was immediately followed by "WHY?" and then of course logic set in and I realized that no one in our neighborhood would even contemplate taxidermy, much less a local trophy keepsake.<br /><br />So we remain baffled. Nevertheless, I thought he was worth sharing on the blog!truestarrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00147210730080999426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834521079833788561.post-59026406909538217222009-10-13T17:56:30.502+03:002009-10-13T17:56:30.502+03:00What a beautiful creature..I wonder what made him ...What a beautiful creature..I wonder what made him die..he really doesn't look dead does he?Ayakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16903896106779269050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834521079833788561.post-54029002757072536642009-10-13T17:04:15.545+03:002009-10-13T17:04:15.545+03:00In other words, this WAS an agama.
