Warm day today = goannas
This joker was standing on my drive as I arrived home from work and went up the tree as I got closer.
This particular one would have been a little under 150cm (5’), but we definitely have bigger ones on the property.

Dinosaur...
This large lace monitor is passing through a deer wallow about halfway down our block.

Especially for @steveportigal

A large lace monitor, perhaps 1.8m or so, walks through a grassed area with a deer wallow.

Mate, you don't belong in my garage.

Visited by a lace monitor (varanus varius) about 80cm long (just a little one). Probably looking for somewhere cool to hide from the >30C heat.

Scooched it out with a broom. Took off like a rocket.

The Brogo Firetrail into Wadbilliga National Park has finally been reopened by NPWS. Given how close it is to home, we hiked in there today to the crossroads; a round trip of just under 7km from our house.
