Pogona

Bearded Dragons love old fencing posts like this where they can be found basking in the sunlight. When approached they usually adopt this defensive pose (which is all bluff) in attempt to scare off predators or nosy photographers.

BTW I have a Bearded Dragon and they are the coolest and probably the easiest pets to take care of. All you got to do is feed it and play with it and make sure it gets plenty of vitamin D. The Bearded Dragon is quite possibly the coolest lizard arround

theres a lot more to the care of a bearded dragon than just feeding it. they have a fairly specific diet in that a lot of shit we eat is deadly to them and needs to be calcium rich as well as many other important nutrients. They also need the right high temp/low humidity and UVB exposure.

However they are indeed super docile and even social somewhat. And certainly one of the coolest lizards available in the pet trade.

If anyone reads this be sure you do a ton of research before buying a bearded dragon.


Oh and to the photographer. Awesome pic of the wild beardie.
