Alphabetical list

It happened to me that I met the Varied Triller twice for a moment as it can be seen in my non-full-size gallery. When I saw it for the first time I thought that it was my first representative of Piciformes (woodpeckers) in Australia. OK, for the woodpecker it might have too little beak, but otherwise its shape, coloration - exactly as it should be. Nothing could be further from the truth - in Australia there are no woodpeckers! Throughout such a large territory, with such diversity and multiplicity of bird species, woodpeckers do not occur.

It is impossible not to see them walking through the Gobi Desert. If you were walking slowly, looking under your feet, you could see these little lizards every moment. They were quite fast, and as I slowly approached them, after a few attempts to escape they decided to pose in front of my lens. Several photos were taken, so it’s worth creating a gallery of this species on my website, for a change to this bird escapade to Mongolia.
