    Identify at the lizard we found in our yard

    We took some quick cell phone pics, and it's tiny (maybe 2 inches long), so they're not the best... but he was really cool!





    My husband thinks he may be a San Diego Banded Gecko... I'm not sure. Either way, probably the coolest lizard I've ever seen!

    definitely looks like a banded gecko. How large is he?

    He was tiny. About 2 inches long. I zoomed in with the cell camera.

    that's about the right size. they are quite small. So your hubby was right on the money. If he gets a swelled head don't tell him though. LOL

    What a treat that must have been to see him. He is adorable and they are good luck too, I believe.

    that's cool looking! Most of the lizards around here are rough-scaled and the color of tree bark, although there are some shiny ones with blue tails I see from time to time. They like to taunt the kittehs by running back and forth across the brick windowsill outside.

    When we got home, I peeked into the little box in the ground for the irrigation system - he's still there!
