On the last day but one I was up early to continue work on the Camel Gate. As I started to paint a Jacky lizard began to dig a hole in the sand about 5 feet from my easel. She dug away on and off till dusk and then she and I went off to our different sleeping quarters. The next morning she continued digging as I continued my painting. When I had my lunch I noticed that she had begun covering up the hole -and the eggs which I presumed she had laid. At 5pm when I had finished packing my gear into the truck I noticed her smoothing and patting the sand where the hole had been - so impeccably that soon it was impossible to see that anything had happened there. She then walked slowly without pausing to the edge of the track and disappeared into the scrub. I climbed into my truck and went off in another direction to my home beyond the Sunset Country.
