Here are a few photos that i have taken yesterday and today. Yesterday my mate and i done a massive day trip up into the snowy mountains, and for the day saw 5 bluetongues and 1 tiger snake, as well as plenty of smaller lizards and a stack of dead reptiles on the road which is very sad. When i see a dead snake on the road i often wonder how much trouble the driver went to to avoid it!!!
Anyhow, here are some photos.
I will start with yesterdays,
This is a tiger snake that was crossing the omeo/corryong road near the gibbo river,

And here is a small lizard i found sunning itself on a rock late in the afternoon near cabramurra high in the snowy mountains. If anybody can tell me what it is exactly i would really appreciate it

Here is a bearded dragon my wife and I found this afternoon sunning itself on a fence on the edge of a local forest.

I was with reptilerob when he photographed the above bearded dragon. Here are my photos of the same lizard.

The small skink looks like one of the Pseudemoia. The Snowies are home to several species. Yours looks to me like either Pseudemoia entrecasteauxii or perhaps Pseudemoia pagenstecheri.

Regards,

Nice pictures, really like the Tiger, yes the small skink is in the Pseudemoia Genus, as David said it is either Pseudemoia entrecasteauxii or Pseudemoia pagenstecheri.
Thanks Tim.
 
WOW thanks for the responses. Im heading up over the bogong high plains again next week and hoping to encounter some more skinks and blotched blueys....and some trout in the rivers!!!
Thanks again for your help.
