looks more like a skink? legless lizard?
is anything similar found in california?
thanx @AshleyT
This is a skink, and should be in the reptiles category. If you zoom in you can see the scales, which an amphibbian would not have. I believe it is a dark individual of Lankascincus taprobanensis, the Ceylon tree skink, but not sure of that.
