Scales - _TNY_8204
Sweden, being a pretty cold place on occasion, only has six species of reptiles (grass snake, smooth snake, European adder, viviparous lizard, sand lizard and slow worm ). We spent a Thursday in May in Tyresta National Park just to the south of Stockholm and within the hour we met three out of those six.
This is a quite cute little viviparous lizard (Zootoca vivipara) which was suprisingly calm once I held her between two fingers.
