After the campsite was flooded Michael found this Skink hiding and put it on a tree ... we all soon had the poor thing surrounded with Macro's while we waited for bedding to dry out.
this pic gives you some idea of its size ...
a closer shot ...
and a close up shot ...

Shane - what great shots (you bastards !!!!
)
It is Egernia inornata - yep - the desert skink
, and only gets to around 84mm from snout to vent (poo hole
LOL). Did you guys go looking for the burrows of this beautiful little bugger?

Shane that is a great pic of the skink, although they still scare me lizards unless i see there feet.LOL hahaha can you imagine that a big bloke who would jump when first seeing lizards. They remind me of snakes and the only good 1 is a dead 1.
Nice shots.
