Ngarrang
Narrandera is said to derive from a local Wiradyuri clan called the 'Narrungdera'.
This word Ngarrang, in turn, is said to mean 'jew-lizard,' which is one name given to these bearded dragons.
So it was surprising to see one of these little reptiles in Narrandera today during lunchtime at the primary school.
Shoo fly
At one point the winged pest got free, but I grabbed it off the floor and threw it back in the web.
Then the "bzzz" changed pitch, sounding resigned to its fate and I felt a little bit sad.
Only a little bit.
