The Bonitian Back Ten Feet Saga
So I started tending my back ten feet, gardening for butterflies specifically. The short version of the story is that there is so much nature, birds, bees, critters, you name it, coming to visit these days. In the last week we have had an enormous pair of Pileated Woodpeckers chowing on bugs, our squirrels never looked so fat and healthy and today, two iguanas took the stage, right above the bird feeder.
Iguanas are exotic species to Southwest Florida but they were fun to watch for a spell. There are two in the photo, by the way.

Love the beautiful green color of these lizards. We get big giant iguana here in Costa Rica and my favorite ones are the colorful blue and green ones as well as the orange and red ones. Incredible the gorgeous colors that you can view in nature.
They certainly are spectacular!
Great article Chris, My neighborhood has a of couple them hanging around. ( I live in Naples)One is quite large and am not sure of the species but he sounds like a horse when he runs across the roof. i would say hes close to two feet long if not more. lol
They are curious little creatures … and fast as lightening!
