Our new pre-fabricated classroom arrived today, and I was taking photos of the
 offloading procedure - quite a spectacular procedure, I might add!
During this process, a learner came to me with a beautiful caterpillar - I was thrilled because I had not yet found a suitable photo for my journal today.  Quite a colourful character...

Much to my amazement a lizard came along and stole the subject right from under my nose!!
It had been sitting in a nearby tree and darted down fearlessly.

What a handsome chappy - probably a juvenile Blue Headed Lizard.
It made a beeline for the tree but dropped the caterpillar and after much tounge action  the lizard disappeared out of site.  Presumably the caterpillar gave off a foul taste or perhaps poison?
Thank you, sweet child for bringing me the caterpillar!!
