Taking it easy this morning. At the brunch outside, the animals gathered again, ready for some crumbs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, morning roll call, to see what's out there on the street. We now know they're called Water Dragons, or Australian Water Dragons. (See if I can upload this video; I've already compressed it by a factor of 5.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then it's off to the table. An ibis, a kookaburra, and a rather cheeky lizard quickly gather. These lizards can, by the way, stay underwater for an hour in an emergency, I've read. But they prefer to sit in the sun and warm up. Or it scurries beneath you, or jumps onto the chair next to you. That's no quiet eating. They mainly eat insects, by the way, and aren't dangerous. Of course, they do have sharp claws and teeth that they use when necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n
