These harmless reptiles love warm spots. Help them out by placing corrugated iron in sunny garden corners β perfect basking spots!

This beautiful little #CommonLizard was spotted by Ranger Steve and as the weather is still a bit chilly it was probably glad of a bit of warmth as it was gently moved out of the way π¦
We had a fabulous survey this evening with 5 #SlowWorm, 1 #CommonLizard, 2 #CommonFrog and 1 #CommonToad spotted by visual searching & under artificial refugia π¦πΈ

We recently had a video sent in of what someone thought was a #CommonLizard in Central #London. It actually turned out to be a non-native #WallLizard!

This #CommonLizard was out enjoying the sun while also keeping cool in the long grass.
#DYK the best time to survey for #reptiles is in the morning before it gets too hot for them to use refugia?
Daniel recently sent in this picture of a #melanistic#CommonLizard that he photographed in the south of England.
#DYK juvenile common lizards are born completely black? Adult melanistic lizards are much rarer!
