here, I dont leave the computer.
I went out to Tamworth two weeks ago to watch my little brother play soccer. In between the games I had about half an hour to go for a bush walk.
In the bush where I looked there was lots of granite boulders around, managed to find the following geckos under bits of bark and little bits of flat granite that where laying in the shade. most of the habitat had been affected by people as it was a state forest I was in, so there were knocked down trees and smashed rocks around and plenty of rubish. It is at the southern end of the granite belt and there are a few good species found there, hopefully I will be able to go out there again this summer for a proper look around. the only other thing we saw apart from the oedura leusueurii, gehyra dubia and heteronotia binoei was a single skink which ran away before I could get the camera out, pretty sure it was a morethia boulengerii. anyway here are the pics of the habitat and the geckos

Great pics Ryan actually makes me want to get out and do a bit of herping
 
Some nice finds there. If you get a chance to head a bit out towards the south east outskirts of Tamworth you can find some lovely Oedura tryoni and Underwoodisaurus milii in the rock outcrops. I can also recall finding Tryon's on the hill where the radio tower is located. This is stretching my memory a bit!!!

Anyway, great pics. Keep em up.

Cheers Rossco.
