(Day 68) - Leaping Lizards!

While taking some photos at the park, I suddenly ran into this random lizard. We don't have lizards this big at our neighborhood parks so should have known it wasn't real. But it still gave me quite the jump scare!! :D

A beautiful replica. Fabulous low POV shot of him too. Very brave of you to get so close!

@tonygig - Haha so you can see why it scared me so much. Thanks Tony!

@grammyn - I know, incredible detailed. Thought it was gonna snap at me. Thanks Katy

[Jennifer]

:-) Lucky you!

[Chris K]

looks a bit aggressive. Would have certainly given CJ a fright if he'd been there.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

oh I'd love him to be real :)

[Granagringa]

It certainly looks real....Were you able to adopt him for your menagerie? He is your favorite color....

[Rachel]

It's that open mouth that would scare me! Great shot.

[KWind]

Wow... that would have startled me!! Great shot.

[Annika]

wow this is cool

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Haha- at first I thought it was one of your dinosaurs. Then I thought, "Oh, is that real?" when I started reading your commentary. I was relieved to find out it was a toy, but goodness, it sure looks real!

Thanks for all the feedback ya'll! I see many of you agree with me about his realism! He did get adopted by me and is part of the family.

However, I "left" him in my sister's room and gave her quite the shock. I'm such a good big brother. :D :D :D

[Walks @ 7]

He knows that he would belong with Fred and company. Like the light.

[Marcy]

It does look pretty real there in the grass, the perfect colors for blending in. Cool shot
