  1. I know that place, we were there in 2007, can't believe it is still there. They call them the "chicken of the trees":

    Iguana troop The photo is very poor, but I don't have a better one of this scene. This concerns a tree top in Costa Rica filled with dozens of Iguanas. Costa Rica,Iguana,Reptiles

The green iguana or common iguana is a large, arboreal, mostly herbivorous species of lizard of the genus "Iguana" native to Central, South America, and the Caribbean. Usually, this animal is simply called the iguana. The green iguana ranges over a large geographic area, from southern Brazil and Paraguay as far north as Mexico and the Caribbean Islands.
