I tried so hard to get his tongue...

....but I missed every time! This is a blue-tongue lizard I met on our first "hot" day here at Tower Hill. And now for the overnight weather change!!!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

yah, I have been known to lay there just snapping away and it can take a LOT of snaps to get the lucky one :)

Fantastic capture

[Rick]

Almost looks like a metal statue. Great shot.

[Denise Wood]

@janeandcharlie They certainly do look prehistoric - good description! This one was about 30cms (12 inches) and very "chunky" Surprisingly their skin looks rough but it's actually quite smooth with such detailed pattern.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great shot

[Pyrrhula]

Great close up of the head.

[KWind]

[Islandgirl]

[Marnie]

Never mind, he's pretty cute anyway. I think I just saw your brolly go past en route to Gabo Island.

[wendy frost]

Great capture and details.

[amyK]

Nice close up

[Carole Sandford]

Fab shot even without the tongue!

[Denise Wood]

@golftragic So how many brollies flew by? Hopefully no brolly girl still attached!!

[Marnie]

@gilbertwood Only a coupla hundred or so, mostly had golfers attached. They're the only people mad enough to put up a brolly in those gales.

[Sue Cooper]

A great close up. Fav.
