Escaping

This quite large Monitor Lizard was heading towards our front door (which we usually keep open for the breeze- the yard is behind a locked gate/ fence) when we "encouraged" it to divert. It then couldn't get out the gate with mesh for our daughter's small dogs (see the Extra for a close up) so it climbed over the fence. It has its tongue out (perhaps showing us its displeasure at the situation) in the main shot.
