Some kind of little lizard spotted on my decking today. Total surprise as I didn’t know they existed here, although I suppose they have always been around and are just good at hiding. Not great photo quality, soz..
ETA. Anyone know their amphibians and could tell me what the proper name of the little one is? Was about 10cm long.

In sweden. Someone who knows tells me it is this one Viviparous lizard - Wikipedia
If that is correct, they also exist in U.K. so hopefully your reptile shop will know it.

Not sure if attached video is gonna work or will be too big, but we had a damn moose in the back garden last Nov! That’s a first, although we often see deer here through the winter.
This moose got picked up on outside network camera before ambling past the side of the house, activating the PIR lamp (which is how I saw it). By the time I got out the front door to take a look, it had climbed over our front hedge, and begun to trot down the street sounding like a horse both in clattering hoof steps and the loud panting breaths it was taking. Last seen running back up into the woods behind us…

Haha, yeah - was dumb of me. I realised that sometime after postingOh that's really cute!
Just a heads up though, lizards are reptiles, not amphibians
I think i had newts on my mind when posting tbh,

We don't seem to get newts round here in my part of London, I used to love watching them as a kid. Great crested newt, and there's another one that lives here too.
No lizards round here either unless tonysingh decides to come up to London and release his menagerie for a surprise reptile army invasion of London
There are lizards in other parts of the UK but I don't think they like the city very much.
Nice to see you MrCurry, I don’t know if you’ve been back for a while and I have only just noticed you posting

Just saw a grey seal. My camera is dead so you'll have to take my word for it.
