I've only seen two water dragons, and both of those were very remotely located. On the other hand, we have tons of mountain dragons and skinks in our yard.

Gorgeous! Lucky for you to get to see these fellows. They are driven out into the desert areas here in Kuwait. You barely get to see a small lizard any more :( Wasn't lucky in Egypt either, booh ;-)
