Some great shots mate. I love the ones of the lizards and the close-up of the frog. :biggrin:

It's great seeing some photos being posted up, thanks.

both those little lizards were great. the one sort of standing up is actually chomping on an ant (look close and you'll see his legs). the other one was eating ants and cherabin legs out of my hand. i don't have a heap of photos of him, but i got loads of video whilst i fed him for half an hour. he was a fat little begger by the time we finished.

That would have been excellent mate!!! :biggrin: I'm surprised he was so quiet. They are great shots and I did notice the legs in the lizards mouth in the first post but didn't know what they belonged to. :lol:

hey Kim,
camer is a cano 7D and my main lens is the Canon 15-85mm f3.5-5.6. absolutely great combo IMO

Jeff i have hand fed a lot of lizards. i find the ones in the wild that have probably never had contact with people seem not to be as scared of us.

these are form my old canon 350d with kit 18-55 lens. great characters these little fellas.

Too deadly, yet again! I'm glad someone asked about the camera. Cheers!
It's the great, big, broad land 'way up yonder,
It's the forests where silence has lease;
It's the beauty that thrills me with wonder,
It's the stillness that fills me with peace.

Very nice pics there, have been trying to get close to some raptors down my way with mixed success.
The shot of the WBSE is especially nice to me, I used to surf under these guys watchful eyes.
We actually had one here a few years back on the river system here and its a fair way inland.
Again beaut shots there.
