Well over the past few months I've been doing a fair bit of herping over lots of NSW and taken a fair few photos. I thought I'd culminate it all into one thread as it makes it a nice larger thread. Lots of the stuff I saw I didn't photograph being time sensitive and it being stuff I had seen or photographed before so many of these are either things that are new for me or when I had more time.

Click on the pictures to go to my flickr which has common names of animals and a rough locale.

Sorry that my skink photography is pretty crap, I'm getting better but geckos are still my forte.

I'll generally try to post in bunches based on a trip or locality, please enjoy and leave a like if you like it, or even better a constructive comment to help me improve my skink photography.

Cheers, Stephen.

We'll start off with getting pictures of a frog I hadn't photographed yet near Gosford.

Some from an Earthwatch (NPO), Australias Vanishing Frogs Field Trip. Where I just happened to meet a forum member who had come along for the trip, I didn't realise they were a forum member till after the trip.

Nice photos how many Tussock Skinks did u see on ur trip we get a lot here in Melbourne particularly on the basalt plains. Also is the snake (Morelia spilota mcdowelli) the only snake u have seen lately?
cheers Micah
 
Hey Micah

Saw maybe 300 or so tussock skinks in a couple days.... must be a lot in the basalt plains.

Nah seen a bunch of snakes mostly rbbs, gold crowns common sort of stuff.
 
cool lol i dont see 300 but they are pretty common along with Lampropholis guichenoti on the basalts.
 
Absolutely awesome pics mate! From the from the bunch I think the shots I think the Broad Tail gecko and the 1st shot of the Burtons are standouts. Is it common forHeleioporus australiacus to have such large arms?
