Today we went to Roma Street Parklands, the best place in central Brisbane for communing with dragons.

The Eastern Water Dragons there are very used to having lots of humans around, and will happily pose for photos while you close to within almost arm's reach of them.

The lizard dug a hole, and is now resting in his hollow log.

One of the big advantages of a "bioactive" reptile enclosure like Jerry's is that it does encourage natural behaviours. Having a soil-like substrate, a layer of leaf litter, and lots of isopods running around prompts Jerry to poke and scratch around in the leaves and dirt like a wild blue tongue would. This is good enrichment for his little lizard brain.

So far the "Pets of Australian Astronomical Optics and School of Engineering" photo board in the staff lounge is 100% lizards. Small sample size, admittedly.

One of the neighbourhood water skinks on the footpath in front of our house this morning, trying to soak up some warmth in a gap between rain showers.

Found a large leaf tail gecko in a tub that I'd lazily left out, luckily it hasn't been as wet today.
thankfully it has a pretty good disguise from most predators when lying still.
Successfully relocated to under the house, hopefully not in contested territory, but close to where I found it..

So, reminder to self - be careful leaving tubs out that will fill with water, lizards may get trapped and need a way out - eg. a branch to cling to and climb on

Will try to add alt txt asap
