Wild Lizard



My father caught this in the garden. Hiding among the grape vines. Will have to find out whether its insectivorous or herbivorous....


Update: 6th March 2013.... confirmed insectivorous :)


Update: 8th March 2013.... released back in the garden

Red-footed tortoise


Wow! they have grown. Male appears to be at least 12" long.
These would probably be the fastest growing tortoises I have kept. Can't remember, but was probably 3 to 4" long a year or so ago :)
Sometimes its interesting to stop and listen to the varieties of wild birds in other region.
Can't see a single one of them, but its drizzling, and somewhere on a hill near a historical site known as the House of Virgin Mary.
