On the way out the reserve, we can across another blue iguana sunning himself on a patch of grass right next to bench. He didn't seem to mind us either and let us get close and take some photos.

The after he'd gotten his fill of water (and his fill of us) he leisurely made his way back into the jungle.

THIS CLOSE! This photo was taken with a 24mm lens with no zoom! If you're not a photography person you probably don't know what that means. So to put it another way...

I turned to where she was pointing and saw that there was a blue iguana standing right in the middle of the path! Meredith and I immediately got all "Mission: Impossible" and decided to sneak up on the iguana and see how close we could get! The answer?

He wandered around on the path with us for like five full minutes while we checked him out and snapped tons of pics.

We spotted this little guy right as we set out on the trail that goes around the preserve! He was cute, but certainly not blue!

Grand Cayman is famous for being one of the few places in the world that has blue iguanas - and our first stop was a huge wildlife preserve where you could (if you're lucky) see them. Here's Mer out front with a huge blue iguana.
