Very happy to finally get good photos of a wedgie! Theyre usually at such high altitude, I've never had one come this close while I had a camera onhand before.
Kalbarri, Western Australia. We come here fairly often and I've always been enamoured with these little wriggly tracks that are everywhere in the sand here. It's pretty windy here and they're often well defined, so I'd assume theyre largely fairly fresh. I've managed to deduce that they're likely from sliders or some other small burrowing skink species, but I still have yet to track them down and figure out exactly what species! There's a good few small sliders here, so plenty of likely candidates.
We've seen thorny devils and rare desert snakes, and yet my search for the wriggly track culprits continues to turn up empty handed despite attempts at both day and night. I'm sure it's a matter of patience and just trying again and again until we find some, but I'd love to know if there's any particular tips for spotting these kinds of lizards. The only burrowing skinks I have experience finding are the earless skinks we find in our backyard.
