On Sat 21 Feb 2026 a juvenile
|
|
<a href="https://australian.museum/learn/animals/reptiles/water-dragon/">Australian Water Dragon</a>
|
|
showed up at our door.

We were heading out on a trip that weekend, but when we got back
|
|
we were pleased to see that the lizard was still around. It had
|
|
taken to spending each night clinging to one of the stems of our
|
|
elephant ear pot plant.

<p>
|
|
Each time we would leave the house we'd check for the lizard. Or
|
|
peer out the kitchen window during the day to see if it was
|
|
there. After a couple of days we named her Liza (inspired in part
|
|
by
|
|
<a href="https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/62117-younger">a show we were watching</a>
|
|
where the main character was named Liza). We don't know for sure
|
|
that she is a she, but that's what we're going with.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
During the day Liza likes to sit atop one of the wheels of our
|
|
wheelie bins (yes that's really what we call them in Australia).

|

|
<p>
|
|
I'm not sure how long she will live with us, but while it lasts it's
|
|
fun to have a pet lizard named Liza.
