Just confirming that the date is correct on this entry? This sighting seems earlier than usual for this species.

Definitely 27 September 2017 - from memory it was a pretty warm day. I remember being pretty surprised we saw so few skinks - I was expecting to see Black Rock Skinks at the top but there was just a solitary Whites skink.
