Climbing Costa Rica Lizard Lizards Reptile Reptiles Basiliscus Plumifrons

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing sight of a Basilisk lizard gracefully climbing up a tree in the lush landscapes of Costa Rica, Central America. The vibrant green hues of its scaly skin blend seamlessly with the surrounding foliage, showcasing nature's impeccable artistry. The Basilisk lizard, scientifically known as Basiliscus plumifrons, is renowned for its unique ability to run on water due to its long hind legs and specialized feet. However, in this moment frozen in time by photographer Marco Simoni/Robert Harding, we witness it exhibiting another impressive feat – scaling heights with remarkable agility. As our eyes follow the lizard's vertical ascent against the textured bark of the tree trunk, we are reminded of the incredible diversity found within our natural world. This image serves as a testament to both the beauty and resilience of reptilian life forms that thrive amidst Costa Rica's rich biodiversity. With every detail impeccably captured in this color image, from each scale on its slender body to its piercing gaze focused ahead, we are transported into an enchanting realm where wildlife reigns supreme. It evokes a sense of wanderlust and ignites our desire to explore travel destinations like Central America. Marco Simoni/Robert Harding's photography not only celebrates this basilisk lizard but also invites us all to appreciate and protect these extraordinary creatures that call our planet home.
