We have had King skinks living in a rockery near a pond for years...they also get into the roof cavity and slither along in there, giving visitors a bit of a fright!! We give them a little bit of the perch fish food every morning.

They all ate and moved around quite happily together too! Attachment: DSC01842.JPG [ 209.85 KiB | Viewed 20594 times ] Also couldn't resist another splendid wren photo- just love them!!

We have never bothered with a front lawn due to rainwater limitations, rabbits & roos. But we recently set up a pump on our dam & dug up established lawn from the backyard where my shadehouse is going & laid it out the front with no great expectations. Well the rabbits must be in hibernation & the roos aren't too interested either, so it is only getting the occasional trim & is now growing well. It is lovely to open the curtains & watch the wildlife. Attachment: 10438977_1538162303135932_4772178555116867052_n.jpg [ 99.65 KiB | Viewed 20070 times ] |

Nice big praying mantis, haven't seen one in a while, probably because they are so well camouflaged. ![]() ![]() Sent from my HTC_0PCV2 using Tapatalk |
