The Ghost of Christmas Lizard

by kaloz

I needed a place for this photo, and even though this place is in town, most travellers would not stop there, unless they had to. I am talking about the Girdwood Clinic. This photo is of the Christmas Lizard who greets you on the reception desk in the clinic.

He may not be around in the summer time. As many Christmas lizards fly south for the warmer months.
