I came across this line of caterpillars on a track,I gently pushed one out of the middle of the line and the whole line backed up and reconnected and left the one I pushed out trying to get back in,so I picked it up with a twig and put it at the back of the line.The lizards I caught around the homestead under sheets of tin etc one afternoon,it was May and cool so they were all a bit slow.The skink gave my fingers a chewing. :biggrin:

All taken with my new Panasonic FZ150 Lumix,still learning how to use it.Have got a heap of hunting pics on it will post them soon,I am the only stickbow shooter in them so you might see some things with wheels on them in some of the shots.
Being a country boy and grew up living like what the property at Byrock was,I love it and I will catch just about anything.
We are going back in a months time,am looking foward to it.

Your photos are much improved from previous ones. :biggrin: That Lumix is supposed to be a great little camera and these shots look great. I look forward to seeing more.

Keith I think alot of hunters have been out Byrock way over the past, it's such a great area. It is but a small part of this great land of ours that has such a vast variety of changing landscape, you just have to love it, when and if ever you're able to get out venturing forth and enjoying it all, so all the best Matt.........
