This little guy is about 4 cms/1.5 inches "big". He was scared to see me in my own garden. They always move very quickly and it wasn't easy to have his picture taken.To my surprise: he even jumped! I didn't know they could do this, I think he has been watching the squirrels... He was a lovely break while working in the garden, which mainly meant watching Mr Mar cutting and stacking up logs (from the fallen pine trees in late January) for our fireplace.
Great macro,Mar! Happy WS:)
ReplyDeleteGreat capture. Some of his relatives live here in my garden and I know how quickly they can dart about!
ReplyDeleteGood thing you were to capture a photo. Honestly I would be jumping if I see them.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting reptile. I would have been scared if one jumped near me.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely works for him! Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteWow ... a small lizards. :)

Looks like a baby alligator!
ReplyDeleteTo make a macro of one of these guys is not an easy challenge, and you've done so well!
ReplyDeleteI love this shot Mar. I enjoy finding animals that are blending into their environment and you did a great job here.
ReplyDeleteOhhhh I am jealous! That is such a great shot! We don't have one's that look like that - we have the smooth silvery ones with the blue streak... but I NEVER have my camera in my hand when I see one! THAT was a gift Mar!
ReplyDeleteI have lots of Lizards in my yard....! GREAT SHOT Mar....! I love your explaination of you working in the garden...lol!
ReplyDeleteIt's easy to miss this poor fella if you are not observant enough. :P
ReplyDeleteGood that he was in your yard and not mine. I'd have missed seeing him for sure! And probably with disastrous consequences -- for him anyway. Especially if he's that small!
ReplyDeletetwitchy little buggers, huh? We don't have them here...they sell them as pets at the pet store. LOL! My DD is facinated, but I told her they run all over at her Nana's house. So the last time we were there she kept trying to catch one. She quickly learned why they don't make for good pets.
ReplyDeletegreat shot, love his coloring.
Very cool little guy. I love lizards. My earth will not show for at least a month... or more.. so no working in the garden.
ReplyDeleteIf it was me who saw that,it would be ME who will jump from fright :D
ReplyDeleteHave a great week, Mar :)
I would have screamed and jumped but then I would have ran for the camera. Have fun working in your garden!
ReplyDeleteYou have a very good eye to see him there...I might not have seen him.
ReplyDeleteWow - that is so cool!
ReplyDeleteBig shot of a little guy. Nice capture.
ReplyDeleteLovin' Macro Monday,
Cameo @-->-->---
Boy, he's well hidden. I took me a second to find him.
ReplyDeleteWe have lizards in the garden here in France, but it seems only in the summer. I haven't seen any yet this year, but I haven't been looking too hard. Do they hibernate, I wonder? I really don't know so I must make an effort to find out.
ReplyDeleteI do miss finding lizard surprises. Nice little side diversion for you. :) And us! thanx for sharing him!
ReplyDeleteHow cute ! and I missed that yesterday !
