WW: Plumed Basilisk at Rainforest Zoo

Female Plumed Basilisk Photo

"I am the lizard king,
I can do anything."
- Celebration of the Lizard Lyrics by Jim Morrison

This proud lady lizard was not what I was expecting to see after I read the basilisk name tag - my mind slithered to the giant reptile from Harry Potter, inspired by the King of Serpents legend. Speaking of snakes, did you see my snakeskin nail art yet? I'm hosting another Jamberry Nails party!
