Extra-long legs for extra-hot rocks. A beautiful spotting, Jasmine.

Welcome to the community Jasmine, and congratulations, this colorful lizard has earned you spotting of the day!

Although drab and inconspicuous throughout much of the year, during the breeding season the male Sinai agama becomes instantly recognizable for its vivid sky-blue coloration
