Bright Light, Bad Eyes

As I was loading the wheelbarrow with mulch this morning I saw a small lizard climbing over the edge. Closer inspection revealed ..............a piece of mulch! After much debate with myself (did I really want to confess to not seeing this well?) I went for the camera.
Definitely a lizard - one of those flat rusty varieties!

A true photographer! So glad you shared this... I think you will be surprised (or maybe not) with how many similar stories you get. I am frequently startled by a spider coming down his web beside me or running across the floor, that turns out to be one of my many eye floaters!

I think it bears a strong resemblance to the Satanic Leaf Tailed Gecko (Uroplatus phantasticus) and quite understand the mis-identification, only with the help of Ross's super large images would one tell the difference!

If we still had thumbnails on the home page, I'm pretty sure I'd have ID'd this as a lizard!! Fantastic shot.
