European Wall Lizard on the wall ;)

Description:

The common wall lizard is a small, thin lizard whose small scales are highly variable in color and pattern. It can grow to about 20 cm in total length. Its coloration is generally brownish or grayish, and may occasionally be tinged with green. In some individuals, the row of spots along their backs may form a line, while others may have a reticulated pattern with dark spots on the side and scattered white spots that can be blue in the shoulder region. The tail is brown, grey or rust in colour, and may also have light bars on the sides. The belly region has six rows of larger rectangular scales that are generally reddish, pink, or orangish. Common wall lizards may also have dark markings on the throat.

Habitat:

The common wall lizard prefers rocky environments, including urban settings, where it can scurry between rock, rubble, debris and buildings. The natural range spans mainland Europe, including central Spain, southern Belgium, and the Netherlands. It occurs as introduced populations in southern Britain, and also in North America.
