Mindanao flying dragon
Just walking around our village and something landed on my chest from out of the trees.
Took this photo of it on the lawn:-
It's more fun in the PhilippinesDraco mindanensis, commonly known as the Mindanao flying dragon, is a lizard species endemic to the Philippines. Characterized by a dull grayish brown body color and a vivid tangerine orange dewlap, this species is one of the largest of the genus Draco. It is diurnal, arboreal, and capable of gliding.
Until you post the photo....
Amazing little creature !

That's what I love about being in the Philippines. I love nature and seeing all the new animal life that we only see in books as kids. My wife calls me innocent when I rave about seeing this or that, but that's ok with me, I am fascinated.
That must be some sort of luck Peter
If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
I'm lucky Steve, my Bro-in-law is a long time fan of all things nature.
Hoping for the promised opportunities to become reality.
In my short time here I've been fortunate to see some fantastic sights. Just want to get some extra time.
