Significant sighting

14 Nov 2019

Very few of the existing records are from the Paddy's River Catchment, could to know they are also in this area

User's notes

About a metre in length this monitor was just ambling across Tidbinbilla Road. Luckily for it, I was able to stop the car as I came around the bend. Luckily for me, there was noone behind me.

A great record from lower down in the ACT - close to the Bullen Range
