Hi All, just wanted to share this little story and photos...
Today I was relaxing in the pool when I turned around to grab the noodle and saw something staring at me, it took me a second to realise it was a common garden skink (correct me if I'm wrong),
he'd fallen off and it looked like he was drowning, so I picked him up and he sat happily on my hand for a few minutes, after that I put him in my spare clickclack so I could take some photos and examine him more.
I get very attatched to animals very easily, so I named him
Gunther
and my mother who hates reptiles even had a little hold
It had been half an hour and I went to let him go at the side of the house, and he was impatient and jumped off my hand, then Bearus (our dog), gulped him down before he could land
Some pics I took of him (before he got consumed).
Second picture is of my little sister having a hold.
Cheers,
-Jordo
