Topic: Is it a reptile or amphibian
I am hoping if someone can identify the small life form in the picture. We were reseating some flagstones at a caravan site near the Humber Bridge and came across several of the small lizards? as well as many small black and brown toads. I could not see how they were able to get in or out from the flags, and wondered if they survived on a nearby ants nest that was also under the flags. The lizards? did not dart away but decided to play dead, even when moved. There also We left a path for them to return to the flags if they wanted. The circle in the picture is a 10p piece. |

Thanks for information, It was strange to see toads and the newts side by side, the toads were generally juvenile with only 1 adult that had dug itself a large hole under the flag. As a matter of interest , I would take it that they would have to go to water to breed. The nearest lake being approx 100m away. |
