Peter and I found this lovely common lizard basking about 3 foot off the ground!

(Oh my ..... my shadow looks like a giant alien with huge eyes, I thought I was feeling a little funny this morning)

This one below was very brave, so I got a nice close shot

And finally this little copper youngster about 2 inches long!

Cheers

Getting to grips with that camera then Mark

There is a very healthy population of viviparous lizards on the site at which Mark`s images were taken. I walk it regularly and still keep encountering new individuals.  There are a few animals that sit high in the strip of vegetation depicted in the first two images.  This year`s juveniles began appearing at the site almost a fortnight ago.

If only the natrix at the site were so obliging!
