Togo Lizards

Togo Lizards
Lome Togo West Africa

I took these photos of Lizards in Atakpame, Togo.



This colorful one is a constant companion as I travel the country, bigger and easier to see, however very fast and will leave my territory quickly.



This is a little bug eater, more difficult to photograph and quick to hide, blends in easy with the tree limbs or wherever it sits. Fun to watch them eat pesky small insects. I was trying to catch a few to put in my room to eat them too small to see insects.

Nice pics Andy. They're both the same species, adult male in breeding colours and a baby. African rock agama, scientific name: Agama agama, if I recall rightly.

Bon voyage,

Richard
