Iguanas, de paseo

The main street running by us is the Paseo de las Iguanas, and we have seen several large ones, but infrequently.  In our back yard there is Pedro, of course, who might be a small iguana, along with a bunch of even smaller lizards.  Well, today we saw an iguana about 1.5 feet long not counting his tail, very dark green with some hints of green, munching on something in the jungle.  We went outside to take a look, and this enormous iguana, nearly three feet long not counting the tail and very, very thick-bodied, came crashing through the underbrush.  Then, suddenly, both  bolted off and climbed trees, quickly disappearing from sight.  So now, anytime we are walking along with a tree branch overhead, we have to assume there is a decent chance there is an iguana up there.  I am told they are delicious.
