Lucky the Lizard

We went to our place near Heber Springs last weekend and as we walked across the screen porch, Diane noticed that there was a lizard caught in a spiders web, hanging by his tail below our porch swing. I thought that he was dead, but Diane assured me that he still had some wiggle so we proceeded to free the skink!

Skinks are known for being able to pull their tails off to avoid capture, but this guy was at a loss for traction.


Diane gently removed the spider web.

We figured he would be thirsty and he drank a bit before heading out.

This obviously has nothing to do with cycling, but I like a lizard story with a happy ending.
