Southern Tree Agama Acanthocercus atricollis

Acanthocercus atricollis are large (120–150 mm snout–vent length), diurnal, arboreal lizards that are sexually dimorphic in size and colouration. Mature breeding males are larger than females and have a bright blue head and throat and a broad yellow-green vertebral stripe, while females remain olive-coloured with black marbling. Their grey-brown skin that provides cryptic camouflage against the bark of trees.
Tree agamas are classic ambush foragers. They waste only 4% of their time moving. When stationary, they sit on tree trunks, on lateral branches and occasionally, on the ground. Their diet is dominated by ants and beetles.

Berg n Dal

An adult Speke's Hinged-back Tortoise (Kinixys spekii ) from Berg n Dal Picnic spot. A small hinged tortoise, with a flattened shell. What looks like a crack on its carapace is the hinge that allows the shell to close and protect the hind legs and tail.
In the genus Kinixys (Hingebacks) the hinge has evolved on the carapace instead of the plastron and lies inbetween the second and third costals. It allows the tortoises to close the hind quarters of their shells.
