I was in the `Gents` at Mirador del Rio,Lanzarote,when I had the feeling that I was not alone ! Then I spotted this smart little Gecko on the door frame .Well ,I didn`t bother him & he certainly didn`t bother me.

Black Lemur (Eulemur macaco)....male.
The males have black or dark brown fur while the female is much paler .They are mainly fruit eaters ; weighing around 2 Kg, when mature. They are gregarious , polygamous & travel through the treetops in noisy groups of 12 to 15 eating ,sleeping & vocalising together. Conservation status is Vulnerable.This photo was taken in a Nature reserve near Antananarivo,Madagascar.

I met this modest young lady near to Teguise,Lanzarote . Obviously she had not been sun-bathing recently. But I think she was worried that the wind might spoil her coiffure !

Taken in a Nature Reserve near Antanarivo ,Madagascar. As there are around 75 species of Chameleons (half the world total) living in Madagascar ,I have no idea which species this is.

This is a view of the wonderful garden of Cesar Manrique ,at his home in Tahiche,Lanzarote. It further demonstrates his love & skill at combining Nature & Art.
