Common lizard (Lacerta vivipara) on boardwalk. Thursley Common, Surrey, UK.
I know common lizards come in a variety of colours but I'd never seen one quite this tint of aquamarine before. A mixed palette of these creatures were sprawled out all along the boardwalk as usual. They moved for no man (only dogs).
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...
skinky is a blue tongue lizard who has decided he/she wants to stay at our place and so sleeps outside biancas bedroom window .... skinky has been enjoying the warm weather and spends his time sunbaking ....
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 :-)
some unnamed lizard marching through the desert. it's amazing how these animals survive in a landscape that looks not very inviting. maybe that's the reason why this guy here stays close to the water pipe (lower part of the picture).
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.
A perched bird hunched in typical pose. These birds ambush small reptiles from a favoured perch.
Re-worked and framd by a friend.
Not sure what kind of lizard this is, as I've never seen one with such pretty colors speckled on its back.
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!
Nile monitors are lizards found throughout central and southern Africa. They are aggressive predators that can climb and swim well, as well as run quickly.
Viviparous Lizard (Zootoca vivipara) basking out of a crevice of a dry stone wall outside the reed bed around Tacumshin, Wexford.
A lizard that lives under a rock in my backyard. He apparently recognizes me or was confident in his camoflauge because he didn't run while I took quite a few pictures of him, some quite close like this one. From the Arizona Herpetological Association Lizard Identification web page, I think that this is a Tree Lizard, Urosaurus ornatus.
