A green friend

[adyorka]

Una amiga verde

For weeks now she has been pacing our yard as if someone had asked her to supervise our animals.
Hace semanas se pasea por nuestro patio como si alguien le hubiese pedido que se encargue de supervisar a nuestros animales.

Sometimes I see the grass on the ground move suspiciously. Will it be a dangerous snake or one of the smaller turtles?

A veces veo la hierba sobre el suelo moverse sospechosamente. ¿Será una peligrosa culebra o uno de los morrocoys más pequeños?

The chickens run away or even flutter as if a surreptitious little thief had tried to bite their feet.

Las gallinas salen corriendo o hasta revolotean como si un pequeño y subrepticio ladrón hubiese intentado morderle las patas.

But our friend does not try to bite or supervise anyone. He only takes advantage of the sunny days to nibble on the green grass and warm up a bit before the rain returns.

Pero nuestra amiga no intenta morder ni supervisar a nadie. Solo aprovecha los días de sol para mordisquear la hierba verde y calentarse un poco antes de que vuelva la lluvia.

Yesterday there was a very strong storm and I saw her running scared, I don't know where she hid from the strong wind and rain; but I told myself that probably today I could take some photos of it because it would try to warm itself after being so cold.

Ayer hubo una tormenta muy fuerte y la vi corriendo asustada, no sé dónde se escondió del viento tan fuerte y la lluvia; pero me dije que probablemente hoy podría hacerle algunas fotos porque buscaría calentarse después de tanto frío.

And I was not mistaken, at mid-morning I found it in the moringa tree, right next to the door of the house, devouring the soft green leaves with pleasure. I asked her permission to do a little photo session of her, taking into account that I have changed my camera and I no longer have a good zoom, so I would have to get as close to her as possible. As a good friend she allowed me, but in a short time some curious goats arrived and we had to end the session.

Y no me equivoqué, a media mañana la encontré en el arbolito de moringa, justo junto a la puerta de casa, devorando con placer las suaves hojas verdes. Le pedí permiso para hacerle una pequeña sesión de fotos, que tuviera en cuenta que he cambiado de cámara y ya no tengo un buen zoom, así que tendría que acercarme a ella lo más posible. Como buena amiga me lo permitió, pero en poco tiempo llegaron unas curiosas cabras y tuvimos que dar la sesión por terminada.

What animal is that? That green-colored animal is attractive. If it's small I would love it to be my pet. Hehe
Nice one.

haha, it's a green iguana, a reptile that can measure up to 2 meters. There are people who keep it as a pet, although I assure you that there are many more who prefer to eat it. I prefer that she walk free as long as she wants to live in my patio eating all my little plants haha. Thank you!

I hope they won't eat it. 😢
You're welcome.☺️
