Great shot! The ones I knew from California had longer tails. Do the European ones have shorter tails, or has this one lost his tail and is growing a new one?

A marvelous close-up of this handsome lizard taken in the open with excellent lighting. Terrific Graham!

No, pretty speedy sometimes, aren't they Graham.

That's a super picture you've taken of him lad - well done.
 
Thank you all very much for posting these encouraging comments on this Common lizard image!
I think you're right about this one growing a new tail, Doc.
