As mentioned a few days back when I posted the picture of the Green Tree frog that came to visit me, Australia has a good array of unique species. One of them is the Thorny Devil. It is a kind of lizard that lives in the Red Centre I am currently visiting. Sandplains are its natural habitat. It feeds on insects and despite its appearance is a rather friendly animal. Actually, I just noticed today that the cover of my Lonely Planet was also displaying its picture. Otherwise, I visited Alice this morning which was a bit dead. The Papunya Gallery I wanted to go to is only reopening on Monday after some long Christmas holidays. I hit the (dirt) road south to see some ancient petroglyphs at Ewaninga after having visited the fascinating Desert Park.
