White Peacock Butterfly & Green Iguana

The green iguana is not native to Florida and is considered to be an invasive species. This one was about three feet long.

Great photo! The iguana is fascinating. But I’m not fond of invasive or non native species.

@calm @cwbill @milaniet @amyk @monikozi @ludwigsdiana @haskar @casablanca @777margo @wakelys @onewing thanks so much for your comments and favs… yes… the butterfly survived. The green iguana is herbivorous… more specifically folivores that eat leaves.

@marlboromaam Hey Mags… thanks… taken in my sister’s backyard. The iguanas are super plentiful in south Florida.

@shepherdmanswife thanks so much!

@ljmanning thanks Laura.

Fantastic capture!

@365jgh thanks Judy… not long really… I kept gradually moving closer to it until it got nervous and jumped into the lake.

@carole_sandford thanks Carole… most appreciated.

[Caroline]

Nice shot. How special to capture both at one time.
