This male inflates his red-coloured throat pouch called a "gula pouch" to attract females. The pouch is only inflated during the mating season which coincided with our visit to the Galapagos in February. This picture was taken by my wife Gowri Srinivasan. More of her pictures can be found in the Gowri's Gallery section of this website.
