    Whats this?

    I found this guy in my backyard and was wondering what it is? Forgive my ignorance but I didnt think its a beardie and I dont know much about lizards and dragons so I wouldnt have a clue!! He was amazing and the photos dont do his true colour any justice. He had this really strong red brown colour. I hope he hangs around!!
