Hello all,
I took a trip to Greece from May 20th to June 9th of this year. These two lizards were photographed in the southern Peloponnese area.
1. This lizard was seen in the mountains behind the village of Asopos. It was in the same habitat and elevation (I don't remember exactly) as Red-rumped Swallow, Cirl Bunting, and Subalpine Warbler. I would guess it was between 10-15 cm long, maybe a bit longer?
2. This lizard was seen near the village of Asopos. It was rather shy and not easily approached. I think it was a similar size to #1.
Also, while in the rental van in the mountains behind Asopos (above 1000 m, I think), I saw a decently sized lizard run across the road. I would guess it was at least 20 cm long, but not sure, and it was green. Any ideas on what it could have been?
