I was walking around today and saw this little guy just chillin by the sidewalk! He was about 20in long with his tail. Definitely the biggest lizard I have seen out just chillin by the sidewalk. I was able to stand there, dig through my giant purse, get out my camera, and take three pictures! he didnt even bat an eye. (of course I don't think he has eyelids) As i continued to walk, i saw two more little guys, but they werent as big as the first one.
Later that day, I saw the much more elusive and usually nocturnal "Australian Popped Collar" (left) This species is indigenous to the area, and known to be aggressive if you get too close. Luckily, this one didn't even see me.

That is so cool! I cannot believe they wander freely, here you wouldn't be able to see one unless it was behind a plate glass box.
better yet, when I visit you I am going to capture those little guys and sell them to pet stores here. It IS the American way after all hahaha
are you talking about the lizards or the popped collars?
haha the popped collars of course. I wouldn't think of confining the lizards.
