Field Notes
Description:
A very young Five-lined Skink. At this stage they have not fully developed the namesake lines completely. As they reach adulthood they lose much of their bright coloration, including the blue tails.
Habitat:
A nature preserve in southern Florida.
Notes:
Many people call these blue-tail skinks, but that is actually a genus found in Australia unrelated to the new world species.
