or technically speaking its a type of lizard a 'slow worm' apparently, and its not a snake because it can blink lol
regardless, thought i'd put up a pic of what my 4 year old niece found yesterday in the garden :)
we kept him in a box for a couple of hours to show my nephew when he got home from school, he has been released back into the wild now :D

cool lil guy/gal isn't it! such a strange tongue though, rather than being as forked as a snake it was sort of spork shaped lol was nice enough to be handled for a short while too |

Same here and the one I had had babies My mother came through and asked who'd left string on the carpet, I went and found about 5 baby slow worms in a notty tangle on the carpet!!
We eventually released them all into the wild |

Amazing, I love these little sausage lizards. I'd love to see one, not native here but never saw one when I lived in England either. |

The 'weirdest' critter we've had in our garden (besides my mothers dog - but that's another story) was a centipede.. it wouldn't stay still long enough for me to count the legs though |
