about 50km north of Newman near Hickman Crater, which by the way I'll put up as one of the top places I've ever been.

Good looking specimen! When I was a young'n, working with a drilling crew In the western deserts of wa, we would see a few, wandering close enough to the rig to see the ticks hanging off them. They are as quick as when they get the wind up them! :-)
