These lizards are common in Eastern Australia. Their tail is designed to help them swim. They dive into water in times of danger and can remain submerged for up to 90 minutes. They can also sleep in the water with just their nostrils protruding.

I'm quite happy they are in your country Frank - that is a wicked looking tail - very interesting info however.

You've captured this lizard in a colorful environment Frank, with the result that your image resembles a colorful painting. Perfectly done, my friend.

A great capture of the dragon, Frank. Very nice details and textures in the lizard and wonderful colours in the background.
