Goanna on a Rock

After the sunrise shoot, I headed further into Esk Shire to see what else was about (the answer is "not much").

So further west to Ravensbourne National Park hoping to was in the Esk Shire (it wasn't), and so having left Esk Shire, I ended up in Crows Nest. There was a sign to Crows Nest National Park and supposedly waterfalls, so off I went.

This Goanna (who let me get quite close) was hanging around near the Cascades (which were empty - no rain out here for a while methinks).

    Geez, we had a lot of rain last night. I was out and the umbrella was pretty useless!

    That goanna looks big.

    We had 12mm in the rain gauge this morning Steve, although it sounded like more on the roof. I was very glad it rained as I have done some plumbing changes recently and wanted to see how well they stood up.

    The goanna was about 5ft (1.5m) long I think, and I got to within 2m of him to take this shot. I might have gotten closer, but the terrain was making that difficult.
