As well as feeding upmteen topknot pigeons, scrub turkeys, wild ducks, little corellas, galahs and pale faced rosellas, I seem to have been nominated as the neighbor hoods lizard delicatessen. This was the second one I fed this morning.
On looking at the photo again, I realize now I am feeding two of them! This mornings one has much more banded patterns on it. They are omnivores and will eat anything but ours are addicted to cherio sausages. If a feed is not forthcoming they will stand up on their hind legs and beg like a dog for it. They are all around a meter long or more but half of it is tail which they will use to whip at birds bombing them. The noisy miner birds in particular hate them as they climb up the paperbarks in our nature strip park before the ocean and steal all their eggs.
