yes it is skink Audina, indeed he was seldom seen. There have been people who think he is a snake-legged or salamanders. but indeed he is a reptile... :) I'm sure not poisonous, Ilya.. it's just rarely seen lizards in my place. :))
is it skink ? wow, i thought he was an eel legged ..
thanks SamMcNally.. , before this I never saw it in our neighborhood .. these animals into our homes on a rainy night, so I put it in a box, then in the morning I pull this animal in the grass in front of our house...
