We have several 'urban' goannas in the bushland around near our place.


I had to slow right down one morning, as one was crossing the road in
front of me!!

Then this morning, after dropping the SO off for work at about 0630hrs, on
the way home I once again had to pull up with my vehicle across both lanes
of traffic, to let Mum and Dad duck waddle across the road with their 8
new little ducklets...... while I stopped the traffic in both directions.

Not the first time I've had to do that, either!!
