With a glorious September behind us it was not surprising that our Common Lizard population boomed. 2014 had been a poor year for them here and we reckon that many got flooded out and drowned during the very mild but incredibly wet winter.
However in the last two weeks of the month there were Lizard families everywhere... along the boardwalk, on logs, piles of reeds, basking on anthills..... hopefully this will mean that we have enough to see us through another winter... may get out there and make some off the ground lizard hibernaculums...
Baby scouting..... (HTV)
