Robert's Ramblings

While meandering along Marine Parade just south of Manly Beach I noticed a small group of people with iPhones up in the air and aimed into the bushes.

I watched for a while from a distance until the subject of their enthusiasm, an Eastern Water Dragon (Intellagama leseuerii), became obvious. One delighted English tourist remarked, "we never get to see anything like this at home".

Fortunately for all of us the beautiful creature sat patiently on it's rock in the sunshine until we had all satisfied our curiosity.
