My present entrance with a portrait of a marine iguana. This lizard remains unchanged for several million years only on the Galapagos Islands.
Despite its frightening appearance, marine iguanas are herbivorous reptiles.
The basis of their diet is seaweed and plants. To get themselves food, iguanas sometimes dive to a depth of 10 to 15 meters, where juicy stems are torn off. They also scrape off algae from coastal stones, using sharp teeth for this. With algae, a significant amount of salt enters the lizard's body, to get rid of which the iguanas have a very unusual way: they sneeze, throwing salt out with the flow of air.
Super cool!
I took @jarvie cool post about #showoffsaturday to heart and made one of my own with each of the six pictures.
Since you like a challenge, both for yourself and us.
I gave you the most challenging animal photo I have in my portfolio. It took many attempts of my father standing next to me throwing bread in the air for us to get this shot. Team work!
It was shot on the coast of Oregon.

Oh he is sweet!! : )
This could be interpreted in few ways, like... that moment you look at coinmarketcap.com.
this is true XD
LOVE pigs!!! We'd like to get a couple of them someday!
Here's my Peacock...
Beautiful! Have you ever stopped to think about just how amazing it is that a bird like this exists?
Aren't they just wonderful, we have wild ones that get around in our village. We don't see the males around much anymore but we had these girls at the front door a few weeks ago, they ended up spending the day here hanging out in my front yard :)
We also have this guy getting around at the moment too, a new addition to the neighborhood. At first we thought it was a baby peahen/peacock... but as it started to get colour, it wasn't quite right. We found out its a Lady Amherst Pheasant (which is not native to Australia), it is believed to be an escape from an Asian household who would have more than likely eaten it! At the moment he has been nicknamed Chook Chook (not by us) and he visits a number of our properties. It will be interesting to see what he ends up doing. I took this photo 10 days ago, he's coloured up a lot more since then. Nearly all his brown feathers have gone now and his tail feathers are starting to grow.
But this is what he'll end up looking like...
I think he's going to be pretty spectacular too!
Awwwwww this is soooooo sweet!!!!!
These piglets were so cute!
Cute, but mean porcupine
Aw, it's just grumpy that no one wants to hug it!
Little Miss "I like to jump the back fence to chase critters and tear my ACL and now I have to wear the cone of shame so I don't chew out my stitches"
Haha, this is my best friend's little lady. She's the sweetest most loveable little girl. Her brother is a bit hyperactive, but she usually just wants snuggles.
Oh no! But as a consolation, she can probably pick up radio stations from across the Pacific with that thing!
I love the tenderness of this picture as my son held one of our baby chicks.
Aw, chickens start out so cute! ;)
What, you're not so keen when they grow up? They have such great personalities - though roosters can be a bit of a pain...
Oh, they have wonderful personalities when they grow up - they become more interesting, but decidedly less cute (in my opinion). ;) Although nothing like the transformation that occurs to guinea-fowl.
Awwwww!
Hmmm, what else is there to eat?

Today is time for amazing animal – rhino. We all know how endangered they are, so when I was in Africa in September 2016 I was very happy to see that there are still quite a lot of them in Hluhluwe –iMfolozi Park, South Africa. This day on safari we saw at least 20 of them. So it was really happy day, as before on all other safaris combined, we saw less than 5 of them.
