Day of the iguana
Bob Ginn of Arcadia has had a couple of driving adventures in Mexico with his friend Leo Rodriquez. On a 2004 trip on the Yucatan Peninsula, where some of Rodriquez’s relatives live, Ginn spotted these well-camouflaged iguanas basking on a fountain in the seaside village of Mahahual. They were right in the village, “not 25 yards from a mall,” Ginn said. “We had a great time” on this trip, he said. “We fished at night, in the dark.” There’s more than one fierce-looking reptile in this bestiary. “Can you spot him?” asks Ginn. (Hint: Look in the lower right corner.)
