In a warm sun spotted in the New Forest we spotted this tiny common lizard in the debris under a gorse bush
These are long-legged lizards, and they play rough. They either have an unquashable beef, or it was some kind of foreplay. As you can see, they run upright.
This lizard was new to me -- I've lived here 25 years, and have never seen this lizard before! No idea what type/species it is.
The photo makes him appear a bit lighter than he was, which was more of a dark, charcoal gray color, with amazing blue and green Iridescence on his underside (just visible in this photo, under his front right arm.) I love the orange ridge above his eye and under his throat.
It was tempting to pick him up to have a closer look, but not knowing if they bite...
This wall lizard was busy catching insects in the vicinity of the young ocellated lizard's hole. The young one ran down the hole (of course); then this one took a peak into its hole. (see next pic)

My son caught this tiny guy in the back yard today. check out the white diamond shape on his head...like a tattoo, lol. best viewed on the large size.
They were really going at it! Though i dont know why it seems his head is down there... some sort of lizard oral sex? Any zoologists who could explain?
This lizard was captured in "The valley of the butterflies", Petaloudes, Rhodes, Greece.
Any hints about species is appreciated :-)

The female collared lizards add some red during mating season. This one was acting downright horny - sticking her tail up in the air and waving it around for no apparent reason. Releasing pheromones? Maybe there was a guy lizard in the area that we didn't see, not that that's too likely - they do tend to stand out.
Best viewed large to see all of the lizardy detail.
And see others in the "Lizards" set.
Found yesterday morning after he had a run in with one of our cats. Complete with tail bitten off! The Lizards tail I’m told will grow back within a year, if it manages to evade capture… Good luck mate!
