Belongil

The Eastern Water Dragon is back. First I saw one of the babies on the path, running in that lop sided fashion, then skidding across the frog pond. It seemed to stop for breath and turned around to see me with it's over size puppy head. I was very pleased to know that there are more small belongils running around. The following day I looked down the yard and there was the big Eastern Water Dragon, with a red stripe across its sides. Big enough to let me know that I should stay out of it's territory. Now I want to know a lot more about this beautiful species - where do they nest and sleep? Do the babies hatch from eggs or are they born live? I didn't manage to photograph these two creatures, maybe next time....
