Female Broadhead Skink
This is only my 2nd broadhead & my first female. Females don't have that big ol red head like the males. She was partially out of her hiding place on a rotten log in the woods. Enjoying the sun. I was fortunate enough to spot her from a distance & get a couple of shots before she spotted me. Ran the photos past a reptile expert because although I know you count the labial scales to make the id tween broadhead & 5-lined skinks, I have a hard time telling where those labial scales start & stop.
