Frilled-necked lizard.
Two stick insects. They were on the jasmine, where they were in grave danger of being pruned by the secateurs as they blend in with dead twigs. The larger of the two would be about 30cm long.

I love stick insects and there seem to be lots around at the moment! I must find out what they eat - obviously beneficial for the garden
I never see stick insects. Maybe because they are so hard to see!
I love lizards though. That is a cute one!!
Oh my gosh, they look huge.....
Those stick insect look awesome ~ I've never seen them. I wonder if they live down here?
In regards to gardening here in Tassie, I am getting overwhelmed by all the different plants/names and the seasons they grow in...things seemed much simpler in the tropics. Oh woe, will I ever have even a decent looking garden? lol
Fascinating stuff; keep it coming.
Wow, thats interesting!
Oh my Gosh life is so different in Australia, I have never seen these stick insects before!
I haven't seen these in Tasmania but we had them in Canada. They are so interesting.
My mum loved frilled-neck lizards. She used to feed them minced meat (hamburger over here). They're so neat, especially when they put up their frill. I guess this little guy wasn't scared of you. Our stick insects aren't as big as yours!
