Lizards
Dragon Lizards are some of the most popular sightings in Australia, with most living in dry areas and active during the day. The Frilled Lizard is renowned for its spectacular display of its frill and tendency to run using only two hind legs, especially when threatened. They can be seen up in Kakadu & Arnhem Land. The Eastern Water Dragon is common to eastern Australia, ranging from East Gippsland in the south to Cairns in the north, and can be seen lining creeks as it looks for small vertebrates to eat. The Wet Tropics outside of Cairns is home to one-third of Australia's frog and reptile species, with the Boyd's Forest Dragon, Eastern Water Dragon and Frilled Lizard popular sightings.
Australia is home to many species of monitor lizard (goanna), with 25 of the world’s 35 species found on the mainland. Goannas have long forked tongues, which they use to sense prey and will lay eggs in tree hollows and termite mounds. Rosenberg’s Goanna is found along the south coast of Australia and in the Souther Highlands, and is a common sight across Kangaroo Island and the Eyre Peninsula whilst Sand Goannas are the most abundant across the mainland and known for their extreme speed and tree climbing. The Lace Monitor is found on the eastern coast and is particularly active in the breeding season across Spring and early Summer. Viewing opportunities are best along the Riverland in South Australia, and into the ancient lakes of Mungo National Park in New South Wales. Up in the tropics, the Merten’s Water Goanna is amphibious and can be found along the billabongs and streams around Kakadu & Arnhem Land.
Australia has more than one hundred species in the gecko family, characterised by their gravity-defying, padded feet. The Bynoe’s Gecko is the most common and widespread lizard in Australia, usually seeking protection under logs and rocks during the day, before coming out to hunt in the evening. Distinctive, loud barking calls from the Barking Gecko can be heard across the semi-arid areas of the Eyre Peninsula, Flinders Ranges, Riverland and Mungo regions, serving as a warning when disturbed. The Rough Knob-tailed Gecko have beautiful heart-shaped tails and spines all over its body, common to the Kakadu and Arnhem Land area.
Skinks are the most abundant of the lizards, with many species giving birth to embryos rather than laying eggs. Fire-tailed Skink, with its bright-red tail a beautiful sight against the ochre-coloured rocks, is found in Kakadu & Arnhemland. Christmas Island is home to the endemic Blue-tailed Skink, which is now extinct in the wild due to predation from introduced species in the late 20th century. Hopes of reintroducing them into their native habitat rest on the pending success of a captive breeding program. While many people think of skinks as being small and slender, some species are not. Blue-tongued Lizard is quite large and common across the entire continent, with its eye-catching and hissing sound used to defend itself when alarmed.

“Exploring the wet tropics for reptiles is particularly rewarding during summer. With the warmth fueling the activity of cold-blooded creatures, it becomes easier to spot them. The Amethystine Python, Australia's largest python, is frequently encountered. The elusive Boyd's Forest Dragon, known for its ability to blend seamlessly into its surroundings, presents a thrilling challenge for observers. Summer offers a fascinating glimpse into the behavior of Saltwater Crocodiles as they conclude their breeding season along the Daintree River. A private river boat charter provides an excellent opportunity to witness their territorial disputes. Abundant water and warmth in summer create a bustling amphibian world, with highlights including the Green-eyed Tree Frog and Australia's largest tree frog, the White-lipped Tree Frog."

“Autumn in North Queensland provides a unique spectacle – the emergence of baby Saltwater Crocodiles. Adult females bring their offspring down to the water, showcasing this annual event. As the season transitions, snakes become more visible, basking on logs and rocks to absorb the last traces of summer heat before entering semi-hibernation. The dropping river and creek levels offer closer encounters with frogs like the Green-eyed Tree Frog, the massive Northern Barred Frog with its distinctive call, and the White-lipped Tree Frog, the largest tree frog in Australia."

“The dry season, or winter, in Far North Queensland is the coolest period, prompting reptiles to seek warmth on logs and rocks. Frogs like the Green-eyed Tree Frog and White-lipped Tree Frog, along with snakes like the Common Tree Snake, become more active. In the higher reaches of the rainforest canopy, keen observers may spot Leaf-tailed Geckos with binoculars. Surprisingly, winter presents optimal conditions for observing Saltwater Crocodiles, as the drop in Daintree River's water temperature prompts these creatures to bask in the sun, providing excellent photographic opportunities on solar-powered boats."
