There is also a population at Ventnor in the Isle of Wight on only one wall. Interestingly they come in two colours. The green ones are separated from the more grey ones by a path about 4 feet wide and live in a bank of ivy whilst the ones the same colour as the wall live on the wall. Evolution in action.

They're all over the place now, it is insane how rapidly they have adapted to our climate.

Owl snacks. If we didn't have such a healthy owl population we would see more of these.

@BritishHerpetology apparently it is very common to find Lizard bones in Owl droppings. They must like eating them. How a nocturnal animals feeds on reptiles who bask in the sun I have no idea. But I remember reading this and thinking WTF. 😆

Wow they are gorgeous. I would love to to see one. Today I came across a slow worm. The other week an adder but it saw me first and quickly disappeared. I'm always on the lookout for wildlife as I do a lot of walking.

They are, it is a shame they shouldn't be here! With the reptiles you've seen, could you please report your observations here? Every dot on the map counts! www.recordpool.org.uk/
