BLUE TONGUE SKINKS

I work at one of those project-oriented jobs where you can wait days for someone to finish a task, before you are able to do your own work.

I spent most of Friday and all of today watching my baby skink via webcam. It's awesome to see what they are up to when they think nobody's watching.

"YAWN. I grow tired of this scene."



Ping takes it upon himself to do some re-arranging of the furniture.



"WHEN YOU GET HOME," he channels to me, "I RE-ARRANGE YOUR FACE."



With the heavy lifting complete, he strikes a regal pose.



...and then takes a dive head-first into the substrate.



"Ping like rock. PING EAT ROCK."


At this point the neighbors must have cranked up the bass to induce a state of ROCKIN' OUT.

Wow, thats really awesome. Just like camera traps.

AWSOME! just AWSOME

That is really cool. Nice job

sooooo.. what's the link to the webcam?

I RE-ARRANGE YOUR FACE!

ha that's awesome! i love his name too!

Ithought the name was cool as well, are you a golfer by any chance?

lol zack i have a 2 channel camera closed circuit watching up my street , flashes between coffin cheaters and a schizo ...Ya cant see it tiny wee thing , He goes off the deep end alot ..
cool skink cam

Thanks, everyone.

"Ping" is actually a Chinese name that I've just always liked. It is unisex so I don't have to change it if he is a she. It's also a computer term, and I am a professional nerd, so...

Without fail, he's out and about within minutes of the basking light coming on:


Skink drink!!


ANOTHER YAWN IMMORTALIZED ON DIGITAL FILM

In that first one it looks like he wakes up and come s to check if the cameras still there,he's thinking"Whens the rest of the Big Brother house mates due"

Those are great!

I find it highly entertaining that he tried to eat his basking rock.
