Legless Lizard, or Glass Lizard. Ophiosaurus Species
Was outside today to clean up the brick patio that I had left some daylily foliage on, and to do some early deadheading of the flowers. My son's were helping me out, when Joseph suddenly (and loudly) hollered out, ..... "cool"! This little guy was moving about the foliage left the day before, and moving in and around the flowers that I had thrown on top of the foliage. I told the boys to keep him cornered, went and got the camera, and got a few shots of him. He was very hard to keep up with! I did take numerous shots of him flicking his tongue out, ......... or so I thought!!! :roll: I have some shots that I may post later of him holding his head up while in the grass which was pretty cool, but this one seemed a bit different and one that you never see them in, ....... with a flower that is. I think a pinch more depth would have been nice and especially on the nose area, but hey, ........ blame it on sweat in the eyes!!! Edit: Thought I would post this to show just how long this lizard is. Joseph said I could take a shot of him, and that I had better do it "before I get those braces on daddy"! This particular lizard was about 12-14 inches long. Thanks for looking gang! [b]Michael Brown
