Here's the lizard we saw on today's walk. The weather's definitely warmed up, and so this one - and several others - were enjoying basking in the sun on a rocky area by the river. Not sure what kind it is: it's about 15 inches long, nose to tail end, smaller and smoother than last week's water dragon.

Thank you! I zoomed the camera and then kept moving quietly closer, and was surprised to get this close!
