Goanna
Goanna, Lace Monitor

25 species of goanna are found in Australia. This is a  Lace monitor, the second-largest monitor here after the Perentie. They can grow to over 2 metres (about 7 feet) and weigh up to 20 kg, but most adults are much smaller. The two we saw at Mullaway were adults and full sized.

About Me

I am a writer and photographer, passionate about art and the natural world, and deeply concerned about the future.

After thirty years in the heart of Sydney, I now live on the Mid North Coast of NSW beside a forest by the sea.

I wish to acknowledge the Gumbaynggirr people (nation) and pay respects to the traditional owners and custodians both past and present.
