I almost ran over this dragon on my mountain bike. The dragon had run off the trail as my front wheel came very close to its tail but it did not run very far, and propped itself up just beside the edge of the track. It barely moved while I photographed it, just dropping an eyelid that was facing the sun. The lizard was very calm, even letting me get reasonably close. Not even all the movement and noise associated with my departure caused the dragon to move, I guess that it had found a new sunning position so it was staying put.
