We saw many things of interest at Kings Canyon, on the three day Rock Tour. One such thing was the way animals can camouflage themselves for protection against predators.
Though not specifically camouflage, my fly net over my hat kept the flies away very successfully. Waving flies away from your face with your hand is commonly called “the great Australian salute” if you are unfamiliar with that expression. It’s almost an institution here in summer.
My favourite cleverly camouflaged creature would have to be the little brown gecko, whose ochre colouring blends perfectly with the surrounding rocks.

Thanks for appreciating my work!
not a problem
I think the gecko pic is wall-worthy. I can almost feel the heat radiating off the red rocks.
High praise – merci. And yes, it was “stinking” hot!
Didn’t see this one, the first time around. Great pic of the gecko. Admiring your headgear also.
Thanks, I love that photo too. The headgear, not so much, but it was very useful.
