Sorry for the lower quality image, I took this one on my phone and as the saying goes, the best camera is the one you have with you.

    Fun fact: This is the deadliest lizard on planet earth. Rather than just poison, this species’ deadliness is solely attributed to it being found in Australia.

      I saw a few that walk. I took a step down to get the photo and was reluctant to step closer as it appeared to be getting its back up and looking for a fight. I wasn’t going to press the issue as i just saw a baby water dragons close by.

        Please be very careful taking beautiful photos like these in Australia. Specifically, watch out for all of the Australia around you.

          They’re super skiddish, but pretty chill otherwise. As a kid I used to feed them roast chicken by hand in my backyard.
