Can you see it?


A few days ago I was sitting under a tree with some friends and I saw something move. When I looked I could see a lizard among the leaves on the ground. I could only see it because it moved. When it was still I could hardly see it. It was almost the same colour as the leaves. Do you know the word for this? Camouflage.

When I moved, the lizard ran up the tree. Then it could not hide so well. I was able to take the second photo.

My friend says that in his language the lizard is called 'bung koei'. I think that maybe it is a little dragon. What do you think?

love from your Grandad in Cambodia.
