I was shuffling plastic trikes and chairs and the barbecue around on the verandah on Saturday, when I disturbed a little skink.
He didn't dart for cover as skinks as per normal (they remind me of very quick, disappearing question marks when they do) but froze on the spot.
I had time to dash into the study, grab my camera and take one shot, during which he looked up at me, with his head tilted to one side as if to say "What the hell is this creature?"
