Finally spotted my first one of the year out on the heath this afternoon.
Male sand lizard I guess with the green sides starting to show.

Great find. I've yet to see a Sand Lizard. Hopefully this year though.

That sounds like a great plan. Where abouts are you nigel?
Are Sand Lizards more easily scared of than Viviparous Lizards do you know?

Hi Jason,
Sand lizards are slightly more tolerant than common lizard in my experience - and for some reason, the common seem to be even more skittish this year than usual?
Have just done a blog about a dorset reptile hunt - one hour, six species! I'm still buzzing now! Mission: achieved! | Watching Dorset wildlife |
