Common Nature

Starting May 1st, because they keep calendar books apparently, adult skinks started emerging to view around the lake in Maryland I live near. I'm hoping the babies with their neon tails will start appearing sometime in June. Here are pics of some of the baby five lined skinks I saw by the lake last summer . . .


This little skink brings you the letter "C". "C" for celtic knot work. You can see where those scribes got their ideas for illuminated fanciful creatures forming letters, can't you?
