@PatrickCampbell2 - No bait used with the camera. It's my lazy 'go to' spot to put the camera since its next to my house. It gets a good range of animals passing. It's next to a dam and with the house on one side and the track on the other it forms a corridor.
The Boly trail camera has worked very well.

I reckon this looks more like and is more likely* to be a Freshie, rather than a Saltie. Reasons being, it has a long, tapered, relatively narrow snout and smaller, evenly sized teeth; as opposed to a Salties relatively broad snout and larger, irregularly sized teeth. The tan body with dark bands on the body and tail also suggests Freshie.
*Statistically speaking it's three times more likely to be a Freshie along this stretch of the river, according to Atlas of Living Australia records.

Hi @actforbees, thanks for your sighting. It looks like the location information you provided is incorrect. This can occur if the GPS sensor in your device was having a bad day. Please review and update the location of this record when you get a chance.

Looks to be a photo from a Boly Trail camera. You've been quite successful with it.
@MartinPredavec - How did you manage to get so many shots of goannas walking past the camera?
Did you drag a piece of meat along the ground or something?

@PatrickCampbell2 - Yes both Varanus rosenbergi and V. varius at the same locality. However, I've never seen them at the same time. At this point I'd say not enough observations to say anything about interactions/avoidance.
