Boyagerring Rd, Dumbarton |
Skink, Shingleback; Skink, Bobtail; Tiliqua rugusa rugosa |
When taking some plant cuttings to a pit in the paddock I nearly ran over this little fellow while on my old quad bike. He had a solid dark brown body with a light brown back. It's the first time I've seen him although we have at least another 2 or 3 bobtails which visit our house yards. |
