Here's a closer view. We saw these all over the rocks, but they're ususally not so close as this one was.

The famous Galapgaos Marine Iguana. The iguanas on Espanola Island are the most colorful in all of the Galapgaos Islands.

The iguanas are everywhere - we had to be careful not to step on them...

A colony of Galapagos Sea Lions on the beach that we first arrived on. The male of the colony is resting in the background.
