I caught a glimpse of this Skink feeding off ants on the Oak tree. I only recall seeing one this big and colorful once before. I did some reading up and found out this guy was in breeding season, that is why his jowl was so bright. He is the same breed of skink that I see often, just that the young look so different. Isn't he pretty?
Eumeces fasciatus
Yes, I agree. He is pretty. I never see like this one around here.. Thanks for sharing..
Is this the 5 lined skink or the red headed one? I wish we saw more of them around our house. We have one big one that lives near our back door. I love to see them relaxed in the sun.
oh we have those all over, I didn't know what they were, thanks Lisa!!!
