Couldn't pinpoint the exact location. A solid metal footbridge over little creek, with lizards viewed below basking and hunting. A good viewing location. Kind regards, Roy

I think your location is the bridge over the Tidbinbilla river on the track that goes to Block 60 and Nil Desperandum. The location shown is on the map is quite close to this. I have also seen Eastern water dragons there. Good photos!

Hi galah681, thanks for the ID and location support. Yeah I was on my way to Nil Desperandum (I gave up half way!) but definitely a nice little spot for lizard viewing at the beginning of the walk. :-)
