Menetia greyii

Coolatai NSW Australia

These are the smallest lizards living in Australia, with a head and body length of about 30mm. While this diminutive vertebrate is rarey seen,
I suspect it is more common than people suspect. They are good at hiding- when you're as small as this nearly everything is a potential predator.

Great shot - I guess it was sunning itself?
