Thank you for the id verification Jake! No posing, that is how the skink was found. The lizard scurried off when I tried to get closer for a better picture. I wish I would have had my good camera. I have some more to enter into the database when I get a chance.

This is indeed Lampropholis delicata. Did you pose it like that, or was it already like that? Because this is a perfect pose for a picture.

Thanks Janine! Do you know anything about Hawaiian skinks? I am not certain on the id.
