Visitors

Not much time available to spend on the computer but I thought I'd stop by briefly to show you a couple of visitors.

This one is actually resident, a Blue Tongue lizard about 40cm long. They don't look particularly cuddly but we like to have them around in the garden because they eat slugs and snails...



Rainbow lorikeets, the most colourful, friendly birds. Although they all have the same mix of colours each one has a different pattern so you get to know them individually...

I remember a number of times whereby I had to escort the blue tongue lizards off my property as our pet dog viewed them as an intruder with a limited life span....

This blue tongue lizard looks to be really horrible. Is it poisonous??? Does it bit human beings? Is it dangerous??
I am curious to know about this species.

DP, the answer to your questions: no, no, no.

Blue Tongues are perfectly harmless.

Thanks a lot for the answer, seabee.
