is widespread throughout the Middle East . Like all lizards, the agamas depend on the heat of the sun to regulate their body temperature, so they are most likely to be seen at mid-morning when they come out to bask on rocks, turning their backs towards the sun. Their well-developed claws make them very good climbers, and they also have an impressive set of teeth, but in spite of this they are relatively timid and will quickly scurry away to hide in a crevice if they are alarmed. Agamas are opportunistic hunters that wait for
passing prey species. Mostly, they feed on insects, such as crickets and beetles, but they have also been recorded taking spiders, smaller reptiles and even small mammals. |

A fine, dorsal capture of a basking Agama Barış, your well lit and sharply exposed macro study reveals the salient features of this reptile very well, good job indeed!

Barış Bey, elinize sağlık. Kertenkeleyi çok güzel fotoğraflamışsınız. Selamlar.
görmeye alışık olduğumuz ancak fotoğraflamada başarılı olamadığımız :)) bir keler.
Netlik ve kompozisyon harika.
Ellerinize sağlık-Özgür
Detaylarını rahatlıkla farkedebildiğimiz bir kare olmuş.
Ellerinize sağlık. Kuyruğu kadraja sığdırabilsek bir kat daha güzel olacakmış.
Saygılarımla...
