Description
The Ground Agama (Agama aculeata) is a species of lizard from the Agamidae family.
This guy was an education for me. I had seen them sunning on the top of rocks near the river, just that I was not capable of their kind of climbing to get a closer shot.
They are quite funny, although they are cold blooded and therefore relishing the heat, the rocks do seem a bit hot for their feet (at an ambient of ±35°C - 95°F - I am not surprised). They then select a spot and sit on their heels, lifting their feet off the ground!
Stay warm!

What a cutie! Exciting to see your pic, I've only seen them on TV.
Wonderful shot Clive.
Stunning capture Clive. That rock must be very hot.
super shot
Great capture, Clive
hot stones! Wonderful photo!!!!!
Fascinating! I bet they've got better padding on their heels than on the pads of their feet. What a fabulous capture!
Wow! Great capture, I've never heard of this kind of behaviour!
I love this Agama and it looks like s/he has an attitude. Super POV and capture. Dana
Very nice shot. And a great POV indeed.
