Post fire at Baycliff, Wonboyn. Hard to get a good picture. Refuge in a burnt log.

Black Rock Skink is my best guess based on what I've seen around the area, but I'll leave it to Patrick to confirm.

Yes I agree that it looks most like Egernia saxatilis intermedia. The size, colours, patterns and form all suggest this species. Also the hind feet look like typical Egernia feet to me and last but not least the tricarinate scales are a distinguishing feature.
