Skinks


Recommended Posts

I took Connagh for walk yesterday to get him away from the bolocks box for 5 mins. We found a nice wee spot not far from the house near the bush, and I asked him if he wanted to look for bugs and stuff, and being a boy he was more than happy with that Idea.

We found crickets, and spiders and all the typical stuff, but after lifting a particularly large log I spotted a what I thought was a bush worm trashing about like they do, but then I noticed legs and I realized it was a skink. But it wasn't a copper, it was thin like a fairly robust worm, and a pale maroon colour, unfortunately it got away. I searched under another log nearby and found several coppers instead.

I've looked on Google by I can't find any pics of our other skinks so I'm not sure what it may have been.

I'm no expert but I'm sure it wasn't just a variation of a copper, it was much thinner and quite long, and I can't be sure but I think it's colour was paler around it's head.

Does anyone have any ideas?
