Physignathus lesueurii
They are able to swim totally submerged, and can rest on the bottom of shallow creeks or lakes for up to 90 minutes,to avoid detection!
As its name suggests, the Australian water dragon is associated with water and is semi-aquatic. It can be found near creeks, rivers and lakes

Well spotted Jenny. Moved it for you Sean.
Hi Sean! You need to change this little guy to the reptiles category :P
Very impressive! We have a lot to learn eh? Thanks for the comment :)
Nice lizard and photo. 90 minutes is impressive - I wonder what tricks they use to do that.
