With a parasitic isopod attached (see separate observation).
And a little baby leafy emerging from the egg mass...
"Leafy 5"
Terrible photo, sorry. Very quick, kept darting in and out. Small, maybe 5cm-8cm long, snout, black dot on tail, bright greenish.
We found a baby! Approx 15cm in length.
No idea what this is doing at Port Noarlunga, but it was there. Could be a magpie morwong, not sure, I couldn’t find any photos of the juveniles.
Saw a few of them, not sure which species.
