Iguana iguana
While at a Spanish fortress, we spotted a green Iguana on a wall. It was sunning, and had no issue with our coming in close. Iguanas have flourished in Puerto Rico, and for the last few years they have become a menu item according to some internet sources.
This was spotted on the coast in a fortress in San Juan.

Wow, hope this guy doesn't end up as someone's supper! Nice shots!
Thanks to both of you. I am not sure I am ready to eat Iguana...just yet.
Beautiful! I really love the second photo with those colors!
They don't call it "Pollo de Árbol" (Tree Chicken) for nothing. People do eat them.
