We had 32mm of rain during last night and another 6 today. It has just started to rain again.

This guy was on the move - I wonder if it knows something that we don't?

 This Fruit-Bat was spotted by one of the Groundsmen at school.

I am particularly excited because this is a first for me and my blog

What a fascinating creature. What's with the Spider, I wonder?

 Walking home this afternoon while chatting to a friend we spotted this Agama on the fence giving us the eye.  The late afternoon sun enhanced the beautiful colours of this creature.

It swung around giving us a view of the other side.  As it turned its head, we thought it was sticking out its tongue, but once the photos were downloaded, I realised that it had a damaged upper 'lip'

The photos that I posted on 12.12.2012 showed severe damage -  territorial fighting, perhaps?

 I need to add that although I own a tripod and a mono-pod, I had neither of them with me on this occasion.

Today I had the privilege of using a 'Pat-☺-pod' 

Thanks Pat for letting me balance my camera on your head....  what a sight we must have been!
