Yeha its a firetail skink. can't remember the scientific or sub-species name tho.
Are there any pics of you WITH your shirt on?
Lucky you Gordo, living in Gunbulanya!
Theres some fantastic country around there, though you'll probably have to wait for the dry to do much exploring.
You might even come across an Oenpelli Python...if not there's heaps of other interesting stuff to see.
You have a great opportunity to get to know the locals as well....you will learn a lot from them if they take you out bush or hunting.....they have a wealth of knowledge but from an entirely different perspective.
Don't underestimate those crocs.....you are pretty much surrounded by them in a good wet season.
Trust me i know all about the crocs! .
I thought I did too when i first moved there!......and its not the crocs you see that you have to worry about!
The more you learn about crocs the more respect you have for them as a predator!
Some nice snakes there. The only elapids I saw around the escarpment areas were keelbacks and slatey greys! I'd love to be back up there right now getting more pics of some things I missed.
I agree about the crocs, I was always paranoid I was going to get taken by one when looking for frogs around the billabongs at night!
Ummm, they are colubrids not elapids. But i'm sure you're just testing us right? lol.
all the same :shock:..................Haha colubrids, elapids all the same to me. I just keep away from them all.
