Lizards

Whether skinks, geckos, monitors, legless or otherwise, here there be lizards.

Copper-tailed skink (Ctenotus taeniolatus)
Going back a couple of months I had the pleasure of seeing dozens of these tiny, extremely fast and fiery little lizards in Australia's Royal National Park. Take a moment to get up close and personal with one of Sydney's most striking skinks.

We're nearly home, but have seen some fantastic wildlife in the meantime...

Rodd Island - a brief skink survey
I recently had the pleasure of spending a day on Rodd Island in the Sydney Harbour National Park. This tiny piece of land supports numerous trees and other flora, so it was bound to have skinks as well. I began to get excited about another first-time sighting when one of them looked somewhat different to any I had seen earlier...

Three-toed skink
This three-toed skink came to my attention in a most peculiar way. He's the fifth species of Sydney skink to make his way onto WLMD and the fourth right from my backyard.

Backyard Bluetongue
The day after my article on the common garden skink and the fence skink, the bluetongue was back! What has a lizard got to do to survive in this modern urbanised world?

Backyard lizards
Ever heard of an opal fire skink? Me neither, but the photo is worth looking at. Let's slow down a little and take a moment with some of the most common, and easily observed fauna right in your own backyard. (Well if you live in Sydney, at least...)
