A Mottled Sole from an estuary in Darwin. Finding these fish perfectly camouflaged on rocks and logs is always a thrill! Such weird fish... Can you spot their mouth?

Shingleback (Tiliqua rugosa)

Despite being one of the most common skinks in South Australia, I’ll never get sick of seeing Shinglebacks (and their gnarly attitudes!). This one was found soaking up some winter sun a few days ago near the Flinders Ranges.
