Skink Lizard

This is a photo that I took of what I believe to be a Skink lizard.

 

A trait apparent in nearly all species of skink is a love of digging and burrowing. Most spend their time under ground where they are mostly safe from predators, sometimes even digging out tunnels for easy navigation. They also use their tongues to sniff the air and track their prey. When they encounter their prey, they chase it down until they corner it or manage to land a bite and then swallow it whole.
