Marine Iguanas Warming In the Sun
Marine Iguanas are cold blooded and depend on the environment to regulate their body temperature. They become very lethargic when temperatures are lower. Grouping together while lying in the sun collects and preserves the heat they need to be able to move quickly.

The walk along the beach of Gardner Bay on Española Island provided a great opportunity to make photographs of the animals that inhabit the beach.
The animals are quite unafraid, making it possible to get quite close for photographs. Note the polka-dot running shoes in the photo of the little Española Mockingbird. This is their world, not ours.
