If this keeps up I'll have to make an "Aussie animals" tag.

Just got home to find a lizard on my front doorstep.

A real, 8 inch long lizard.

It seems to be living in a teeny hole underneath my driveway.



*waiting carefully for it to emerge so that I can take photos*

I get these ones in my garden quite often - called "Sleepy Lizards" locally but I can't remember what their proper name is ("Bluetongue"?). You mainly see them squashed on the road because, unfortunately, they like sleeping on the hot tarmac.

I love lizards! I find them quite cute.

Ooh, fun. We get heaps of skinks here, scurrying across the bricks, but have only sighted a bluetongue once, and it scared hubby by rustling loudly through the grass- us being in snake country, and all... :-p

Haha! Did you measure it for that, or guesstimate? With you I wouldn't know. :P
