The Water Dragon

A while ago, when my bestie and I came home from a day out, just sitting on the deck was a Water Dragon just catching some sun. He didn’t mind me snapping away and as @Manic_Henry says …..”They crave to be immortalised in photographs.”…..

Here is the Water Dragon, unaware he is about to be the subject of a photographic expose…..

He turned to make sure I wasn’t up to no good.

It was then that I noticed the bright red of his belly

The rear feet seem almost useless with those long toes, but when in the water they can propel him along quite fast.

The Water Dragons skin is rather bumpy and spiny

The back of his head has interesting shapes.

I am sure he wanted me to get his good side when he turned again, although doesn’t really have a smile does he? The front claws look formidable.

“Maybe this is my best side.”

Maybe it’s time for a close-up.

“I said close up!!!”

The next morning we saw him where we least expected to see a Water Dragon

Thanks Water Dragon for letting me into your world.
