February 25

One of those mornings.
Came across this lethargic Komodo Dragon yesterday morning.
Despite the fact that it was sunny and a perfect opportunity to warm up, he decided to stay inside in the shade and stare at me.

I was going to write something about the saliva, but Frank beat me to it ;-)
Komodo Dragons are amazing animals, I'd love to see them in real life. Preferably in Indonesia, but a zoo will do.

I think it's salivating at the sight of you, Walter. Excellent capture. Vote

Argh the slobber dripping off him is disgusting! Great capture of a very interesting ctitter.

Wow! Looks like one can touch him on the nose, its so close. Good to have your camera always ready. V

Nice shot, Walter. Other than being chewed to death, you captured this reptile's greatest threat to large animals--his saliva, a stew of virulent bacteria.

Great shot Walter. But not the sort of guy I would want as a friend. Voted
