We have water dragons in our garden.

If you're interested look at this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_water_dragon

Early this week I noticed a tiny one on our back deck, he was running around and eating moths and other insects. Good, he can stay.

On Wednesday night I went outside, and thought one of my orchids looked a bit weird...... the baby dragon was asleep in the flower....... and he was there last night too. He's not in the orchid in the morning. There's one flower left on the orchid, where will he sleep when the flower drops off?

I've been outside watering the pot plants......... and there he was... hiding in the parsley.

Adult dragons eat their young, maybe he saw his siblings getting eaten and decided to hide........ but I hope he doesn't decide to stay on our deck when he gets BIG!

Perhaps you would like the Old Dragon from Two doors away to keep him company. :-D :-D

Lucky you. They are not all that big fully grown, less than 1 m. It's not like they might eat you or even yr pets. Very photogenic!

Oz is lucky to have so many amazing creatures which hang on more or less despite ever decreasing habitat.
