One little Australian goanna

[happypalms]

This little fella I have  watched grow up over the last year 7 years. I first spotted him as little fella about 6 inches long in the hot sand one day. Every year he appears as the weather warms up. We both just look at each other and go there you are again. He’s not bothered by me and iam not bothered by him either. He digs a hole in sand between some rocks I landscaped with and lives there in the garden a little friend to have in the garden.
