It breeds in the Gulf states of the US, through Central America and the Caribbean south to Peru and Uruguay. It is a resident breeder in most of its range, but some northern breeders migrate to the southeastern US or beyond in winter. There is post-breeding dispersal to well north of the nesting range, as far as the Canada–US border. #CentralAmericanBirdsSeria #CentralAmericanAnimalsSeria #CentralAmericanHeronsSeria #CaribbeanSeaislandsBirdsSeria #CaribbeanSeaislandsAnimalsSeria #CaribbeanSeaislandsHeronsSeria #LittleBlueHeronsSeria #BlueHeronsSeria #LittleHeronsSeria #HeronsSeria #SouthAmericanBirdsSeria #SoutbAmericanAnimalsSeria #SouthAmericanHeronsSeria #31December2017Seria #31DecemberSeria #2017DecemberSeria #2017SundaySeria (Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve Society)

#AnimalesLifeSeria #JamaicanGiantAnolesSeria #JamaikanTwingAnolesSeria #HispaniolaTwingAnolesSeria #PuertoRicanTwingAnolesSeria #JamaikaAnimalsSeria #CentralAmericaSnimalsSeria #CaribbeanSeaislandsAnimalsSeria #AnoleSeria #TwingAnolesSeria #GiantAnolesSeria regram @natgeo The #JamaicanGiantAnole is closely related to other Jamaican anoles, like the Jamaican Twig Anole. With its short legs perfect for clinging to narrow branches, the #JamaicanTwigAnole highly resembles the #HispaniolaTwigAnole and the #PuertoRicanTwigAnole. DNA-based studies by Jonathan Losos and his colleagues form Washington University, reveal that the adaptations that this #reptiles experienced have #evolved on the separate islands independently. For example, the #JamaicanTwigAnole is more related to the #JamaicanGiantAnole, than similar twig anoles on other islands. #Anoles native to #Jamaica and #Hispaniola are not closely related to parallel specialists on other islands as well. Despite variations occur randomly, it seems that similar ecological circumstances sometimes produce uncannily similar adaptations. #september08eylul2015 #salieylulseria #sali2015seria #saliseria #eylul08seria #eylul2015seria
