Goanna on the run!

Driving home from golf last Sunday, I turned into the road that goes by our house and saw a piece of rubber rolling along the pavement. It was only when I got a bit closer, that I could see that the 'rubber' was WALKING!!!

It was this little fella, a 'Goanna' or an Iguanna, as we Poms call them!


I got out to take a photo and it stopped in the shade of a tree, so I walked up and took a few shots (Photos)

It was only when I showed the guys at work, that they told me that these things run like the wind AT YOU, and bite, scratch and scream as they climb to your head, so I guess I was bit lucky? Or do I have the powers of 'Mick Dundee'????
Either way, I'm a 'dumb Pom'! lol
