Hard to tell from all the various RG photos at this location, because they were not taken to show the goannas' faces, but from perusing their face markings, this seems to be a new individual. So far none have been reported twice, as if this is a goanna transit stop! But more likely there are four or five individuals being reported repeatedly.
