My first wild encounters...

[Just_Joshin]

Well i went out for a herping trip with a few mates. It was a good night in all as i got to experience geckos in the wild for the first time. Anyhow....pics are below. Enjoy!

Thick-tailed Gecko - Underwoodisaurus milii

Southern Leaf-Tailed Gecko - Phyllurus platurus

Eastern Stone Gecko - Diplodactylus vittatus

Small eyed snake - Cryptophis nigrescens

Litoria freycineti

Litoria lesueurii

And then when had the odd one out. The hard shelled visitors that wasn't a turtle.....

A very big crayfish

nice photos. I have lived in Thirroul all my life and have only ever seen a couple of leaf tailed geckos. I will have to do some more night walks.

Were these seen in the northern suburbs of Wollongong? Bulli/Thirroul?
