Wildlife in Focus
with Consulting Ecologist, Kurtis Lindsay
What do you know about Lizards,
skinks, and geckos?
Where do they live, what do they
eat?
Do they hibernate or live in warm
climates only?
Are reptiles nocturnal or diurnal?
Are they good to have in the garden?
How does one attract them to the garden?
Well you might not have this
particular reptile in your neighbourhood, but a recent guest presenter sure
knows all about them.
Listen to this segment about the Broad Tailed Gecko....
To attract reptiles to your garden,
you need a small pile of sticks, stones, concrete or terracotta pipes in a
corner somewhere in the garden.
Your reptiles can scurry away from
predators into this pile, that doesn’t have to be huge. Plus, they need some stones to bask
on when it’s sunny.
Much better that they’re out in the
garden then in an aquarium as a pet.
If you have any questions about a lizard
you want identified, why not drop us a line. Or send in a photo to realworldgardener@gmail.com or by post to 2RRR P.O. Box 644
Gladesville NSW 1675, and I’ll send you a copy of the Garden Guardians in
return..
