Notes
This is probably a late hatchling from last season. It was cool and taking shelter under a good, the soil under the log was damp. The lizard was alive but made no attempt to run or escape. He was in my hand for several minutes as I had to change the battery in my camera. Even when I placed him back he did not bother trying to run. I carefully replaced the log over him.
