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.
The local goannas have spectacular black and gold markings, there are two forms, this one with the broad stripes is the Bells form, less common.Oyster LagoonAfter a refreshing swim in Oyster Lagoon
