| | | Possible Wall Lizard, Seacombe
Went along the Dorset coast today and visited three possible wall lizard sites, Dancing Ledge, Seacombe and Winspit.
Managed a very quick shot of this guy on the rock behind some fencing. Sorry for the poor photo, wrong lens on the camera as it turns out.
Am I right in thinking this is a wall lizard?

Me too! They are doing very well along the Dorset coast. I saw quite a few at Poole back in April. |

The colony of wall and green lizards at Boscombe cliffs is displacing the common lizards there and is getting nearer to the sand lizard colony there |
