Lizard Man's Travels

This site is a journal of my travels and other adventures while I shift from doing postdoctoral research on tree frog ecology in Darwin, Australia, to research on digestive physiology of lizards and bats in Sede Boqer, Israel. Enough friends have been asking me for regular updates on this journey, that I thought this would be the best forum to keeep everyone up to date (including me).

Meat ants - 6 April 2007


meat ants - 6 April 2007
Originally uploaded by wandering lizard.
Here is one of the 1,500 species of ants in the Northern Territory. These are quite common. Unfortunately, they are also quite big and have an unpleasant bite. At least they aren't that aggressive, unless you're a dead piece of meat.

In case you were wondering about the daily photos, I came across a group in flickr that is a Day by Day, one photo a day in Australia group. So, I'm trying to take and post a photo for each day. Not sure how long I'll last, but I'll give it a shot (so to speak) for a while.
