Mellow Yellow/Macro Monday

Is this a face only a mother (or another
Galapagos land iguana) could love?
Darwin described them as "ugly" and having
"a singularly stupid appearance."  This one
lives at the Darwin Research Station; he's
full-grown at about 5 feet long and 25 pounds,
will live to be 50 or 60 years old—
and I kind of like his extraordinary face.
