| One day I was
leaving the house to guide a dolphin nature cruise and
accidentally ran over a beautiful Eastern
Glass Lizard. This harmless creature resembles a snake
in that it is legless, but it is different in that it has ears and
movable eyelids. Adults range from 18 to 43 inches in length, and
this one was an 18” specimen. Its underside is solid yellow.
Although I had never seen one before, it is common in coastal dune
habitats. The tail is easily broken off, thus the name. |
