Fantastic creature . I looked that up. Official small mammal of Texas
Beautiful. They'd be fascinating to watch I'd imagine.
Neat shot, cleverly photographed Richard. Like Pippan, I too thought it was a "shoulder skink."


Thanks Mike. Hands and legs okay, shoulders out of bounds 
If your household skinks are that small, how do you avoid stepping on them?
OhLook I'm not sure you could if you tried.
Whilst very friendly they are very flighty and extremely fleet of foot.
Their short bursts of speed is phenomenal and to watch them catch something is entertaining.
