Karawatha

Brisbane

Australia Water Dragons are common all over Brisbane. I captured this beautiful fellow at Karawatha Forest which is in walking distance to my home in Calamvale. But I've seen hundreds of these cuties in South Bank Parklands, City Botanic Gardens, Roma Street Parklands and even in my university, QUT.
