After all the rain a sunny day was very welcome and not just for the humans! 8 Common Lizards seen basking in the dunes at Murlough, Co Down, on the last day of February.

Day 11 of our Nature Advent!
A common lizard—small but perfectly adapted to life in the UK. 🦎
They spend winter in hibernation, emerging when the sun brings warmth back to the land.

A common lizard trying to get some warm but the clouds are out in force today. Around 8cm long.
I call that a win today for wildlife spotting #CommonLizard around 8cm

Not every day you find a lizard in the livingroom…
My daughter “muuuum, there’s a lizard in heeeerrreee”
Genuinely thought she was playing a trick with her lizard toy, she’s 4 and that’s her style. But the girl was right.

Drawing of a common lizard sitting on a stone. Black and white, pen and ink.
Sorting through stuff at Mum’s and found this pen and ink illustration I did almost 40 years ago. Think it was done for a walk leaflet for Yorkshire and Cleveland Heritage Coast.

Another throwback to my dissertation, I felt very lucky to get this action shot. Common lizards aren't usually too photogenic, but watching one hunt was very special.

A Common Lizard at the centre of picture had just shown itself from the crisp dead leaves of Autumn past.
The Lizard, coloured in shades of browns and some green, continued it’s foraging hunt across the moss covered ground
Eventually it reached more ground fallen leaves, and then disappeared under its cover.
An early Spring visit to Gilfach Nature Reserve, near Rhayader, where my attention was drawn to rustling from the previous year’s dry, crisp leaves. Suddenly the creator of the sound appeared, a Common Lizard. #commonlizard #naturephotography #gilfachnaturereserve #midwales #reptile #wildlife
🦎 Came across these critters (Zootoca vivipara) by chance earlier this week. I love seeing lizards, having them hang around long enough for me to photograph them is a bonus!

Zum Glück sind #waldeidechsen mit ein bisschen Geduld sehr neugierig, so daß dieser kleine Kerl sich sogar bis vors #makroobjektiv getraut hat

Bonus Father's Day present was seeing these little gems on an afternoon walk at Whitehead, Co Antrim (Very green one in pic 2) #CommonLizard
One of my better #CommonLizard photos of 2021 (at Slievenacloy, N Ireland) - reminiscent of 1973 @PaulMcCartney #RedRoseSpeedway album cover😆
After the frogs this morning, it was good to get a little reptile 'fix' at different location, in the afternoon. #CommonLizard.
