Wonderful capture of this beautiful skink, Bob!! What is it walking on, though?? :o) #7351717Bob Cammarata March 30, 2009
Thanks Dominick, Randy and Carolyn for your comments.Actually, this handsome semi-dormant skink was captured nearby and positioned on what I thought was an interesting perch for this intimate portrait.
Those fleshy growths are some form of tree fungus which I've been un-successful in identifying.
I've attached another photo taken from a different angle that shows the fungi in more detail.
