A nice sighting as it takes a refreshing drink, Chuck. I wouldn't want to be bitten by one of these venomous lizards!

Love the low angle and pose. Certainly one of the best images of this species I have seen here. Bill's Pond?

The owner of the site when I visited in 2019 was a fellow called DanO, but I believe it’s the same place, David. Thanks for commenting.

This is such an ancient-looking species, thanks for sharing, Chuck.

Terrific shot of this "monster". Didn't know they were poisonous!
