Good value No One, seeing herps in the wild is awesome and something I intend to do a lot more of this season.
It has been hot in Brisbane this past week and skinks have come out everywhere,
Roll on the herp season!!

About 6ft
It's the first lacey i've seen this spring, he didn't even hiss, normally they get pretty defensive but you can get really close to them if you move slowly. I gave that one a pat on the back and he didn't mind.
Check out those claws, imagine those digging into your arm

thats a great shot noone. I remember seeing about 10 monitors which looked like that at a place called the Basin. They were about 6ft aswell. A shame i didnt have a camera, i might go there in the holidays and check them out.

I saw a legless lizard.
Hopefully the herping will improve as it warms up a bit more.

That shot was taken around a large impoundment,

You'd get some interesting herps up your way Mags? I'll bet theres plenty of brown snakes.

Take it to a vet brendan! they will know either how to help it or destroy it humanely!
never kill an animal yourself, except food mice/rats and then with supervision to ensure its quick!
