Green lizard

Spacer
The sight of one of these green lizards was always an exciting treat. They were quite easily frightened and would frequently run right up a tree or bush to avoid a close approach. They are quite large animals - this one was perhaps a foot long. The bright green colouration of this one marks it as an adult. (All of the pictures in this gallery were taken in the garden of 'La Roque', near Ginasservis in Provence, southern France in 2004.)
