Unexpected Vistor in the Boulder Pond !!

avatar

On my walk yesterday through Chatuchuk Park in Bangkok city an one park you must visit if your even in Bangkok city this park is full of beautiful nature , flowers , trees , man made lakes and a few unusually wildlife animals that you wouldn't normally see in other parks. I spotted this beautiful pond so i thought i need to have a wonder around this pond you always find some interesting wildlife around ponds right.

So i am making my way across this little stone bridge and below me in the little flowing river were so beautiful Koi fish no many and small then made my way over this wooden podium which looked a little unsafe but treaded across slowly observing my footing , i didn't want to end up in the green algae pond.

Well i was honestly not expecting to see this in a pond they certainly had it made a lovely fresh pond all to themselves like been in a private resort with all the luxuries and they certainly didn't expect me to stumble in on there privacy.

You're lucky to have seen a Monitor Lizard, and of all places!
If it had been a crocodile, I'm wondering if you would have been able to take a picture of it before high-tailing out of there?! Thank you for sharing your experience @bigsambucca
