| Eastern Water Dragon |
Today the water was freezing in Bowen's canyon, At the exit point of most Blue Mountains canyons you share the rocks with an Eastern Water Dragon. They come in a variety of sizes and colour markings, the one pictured is a female or juvenille. The spikes along their spine make them look prehistroic however they will happily eat crumbs from easter buns as they scamper around the rocks.
Many Eastern Water Dragons appear to be territorial and the same dragon can be at the exit point in the same canyon year after year. Wonder what they they do for entertainment in the winter months when there are no canyoners passing by.
