A surprise visitor

This little lizard came throught the drainage hole onto our front deck when we were moored up near Rawcliffe Bridge.  

It was about 6 inches long and when it settled on a piece of rug I carried it out onto the bank.

 I've finished the June bookmark and it proved quite tricky to take a photo showing the correct colours.  This is the nearest I could get but all the colours are stronger than in the picture. 

I've started sorting out my materials for the July bookmark which has a seaside theme.
