Amazing pictures. It's very rare to get a picture that shows that the black in the eye is just the pupil. I love that. In most pictures, the entire eye looks black.

Thanks Atul! I generally have better luck with insects than bigger animals, so I was really happy with the pictures of this lizard. :)
