Got back from the Virgin Islands a couple of days ago. Some of these are from St. Thomas, St. John, other smaller cays in the area, and the water in between. Most are from St. Thomas though.
Lots of Iguana were around. Even a few nesting and laying eggs.
There were Puerto Rican Ground Lizards (Ameiva exsul)
and Crested Anoles (Anolis cristatellus)
This one had lost his/her tail. I think it was a A. cristatellus, but I'm not 100%.
Could it just be a Anolis sagrei? Are they even in the Virgin Islands? I'm sure it was not A. pulchellus or A. stratulus. What does everybody think?
I also found, on the last day as I was dragging my suitcase to the airport, a dead Bahiminy Blind Snake on the sidewalk.
Flying Herps
There were several birds too.
Laughing Gulls
Zenaida Dove
Pearly-eyed Thrasher
White-Cheeked Pintail (or Bahama Duck)
Frigate Birds
Killdeer (and nest)
Great Egret
Brown Booby
Brown Pelican
Green-throated Carib
And this one, which I think is a juvenile Black-crowned Night Heron. I'm pretty sure its a juvenile, and I'm pretty sure its a night heron. It looks more Black-crown than Yellow-crown.
Oh yeah, and the No Animals Allowed Chicken. It made me chuckle.
There were also Tetrio sphinx moth caterpillars
This caterpillar (I don't know the type)
And a quick moving millipede.
That's all I got.
Cheers!
