Found this little guy in our backyard. Dave has lived here all his life and has never seen one before. Photo colouring not the best, but the light colour is very light tan with black stripes. It is called a Broad Banded Sand Swimmer, and usually live in arid, spinifex country.

Yeah as I said my photography leaves a lot to be desired. Just thought you folks would be interested in something found a tad out of its usual territory eh? Scientific name, according to Fuscus' book is "Eremiascincus richardsonii"
