Anna Shevelev, Quiet Neighbours (ANIMAL & NATURE 2025)

Blue-tongue lizards are some of the best neighbours you could wish for—quiet, gentle, and helpful. They keep the garden alive, reducing pests like slugs and snails while moving calmly through the undergrowth. Their subtle presence and striking patterns remind us that beauty often lives right beside us, just beneath the leaves.
