Description
Follow me on Instagram ^_^ : www.instagram.com/temperatesag…We found this beautiful young little Western Skink in our neighborhood and decided to take a few quick pictures with it before releasing it again. It was very relaxed and even fell asleep on my warm fingertip.
This shot was taken for our 365 Day Project, you can follow the project daily here: vahala-trio.tumblr.com/

Just wanna throw this out there, but they're known to play dead. It's very rarely seen, but it's a part of their defense. Something tells me he wasn't sleeping, and more just hoping you weren't going to eat him.

Potentially, but he wasn't lying still all the time, he would move about on my finger now and again.

Ahhhh, then I guess I was wrong. Would have been interesting if it was playing dead, that's pretty rare to see.

My brother had a lizard that would do that from time to time. It would flop over like a rag doll. Poor thing. XP

I'm somehow scared it's going to leap to her eye and dig into it.

TEMPERATE-SAGE In reply to SaintlyPants [2014-07-28 18:49:14 +0000 UTC]
Haha. these lizards don't leap, they only scurry. I thought about it too when I got it that close to my eye, but he was relatively docile.

This photo has such a wonderful, magical quality to it! It's simply beautiful! I love the clarity of the eye and the skink, the blurring and the contract, and the colours really pop and draw the eye! (No pun intended.)
Overall a simply beautiful photo!

Haha, thank you very much! I was really happy that we were able to get my eye and the skink close enough to have both in focus!
