Even the animal world comes together during natural disasters.

Have a couple of dragons take up residence in my backyard because of the water laying around in the park next door. Nice looking lizards, although they will bite like buggery if you are silly enough to put your hand near their mouth.

Bloody cane toads are coming out as well...ok well, I get to practice my spearing techniques. Got four big buggers on the spike.

And a nice "flutterby" dropped in as well...for the oo ahh awww factor.

Cheers, Vince

Butterfly is pretty. Toads and dragon's about the ugliest things I have seen in a long time. Smile

At least you are getting some hunting in Vince!

Toads are poisonous...wouldn't eat a dragon...they are awesome critters...and they eat the moths and grubs that attack my herb and chili garden.

The toads are just there...mongrel things. Don't see the dragons all that often...depends on the weather.

Cheers, Vince

Those toads would be a lot of fun with a .22 loaded with Stingers ...
