Boonoo Boonoo.

So...yesterday we took Tessa to Boonoo Boonoo National Park, (pronounced 'Bunna Bunoo') just across the border in New South Wales.

The Sphinx,Turtle Rock and Castle Rock.

So...we have Tessa with us again this weekend and yesterday we went to Girraween and walked to the Sphinx and Turtle Rock and came back via Castle Rock.

Burton's Snake Lizard...

Baldyhead and the Three Lizards.

'Who's that sneaking a picture of me?' said Daddy Lizard.

'Who's that invading my personal space?' said Mummy Lizard.

'Who can I smell?' said Baby Lizard.

'Oh, I can see from up here that it's Baldyhead!'

Leslie through the Mulberry leaves.

Introducing Leslie.

So... here is Leslie the Lizard who is the latest regular visitor to Frogknot. I see them most days now sunning themselves in the garden on the rocks. They are about a foot long from nose to the tip of their tail and I think they are a young Bearded Dragon. I have actually seen two of them and they seem to stick to different areas of the garden. This is Leslie 1. They are pretty unphased by our approach and our stopping to peer closely at them. Leslie 2 is not quite as friendly and has a slightly longer tail and dashes away whenever we are near.

Sunrise.

So...by all accounts we missed a cracking sunset yesterday because we had the blinds down over the window...but dawn this morning was pretty spectacular too.
