Helly everybody
The recent request for lizard pics was a good opportunity
to post some of my lizard photographs from
Spain and South Africa.
I even succeeded in identifying most of them.
Below is a list of files I intend to post
Should you miss one or more,
let me know and I will post them again
or send them by email.
