Wednesday, March 24, 2010

The swift and secretive fence lizard is said to be very common in the Pines, but this is the first one I've ever managed to see...

Dave said...: Don't feel bad. They're not uncommon on talus slopes and other rocky areas around central PA, too, but in all my years in the woods I've only ever had a couple glimpses.; 24 March, 2010
MojoMan said...: Very cool! I didn't know about these. They certainly give the Pines a southern feel.; 24 March, 2010
