Rescued Fence Post Lizard

Lizards are everywhere around our house right now. This one narrowly missed being killed by our dog Trudy who pounced on it and got most of the tail. The poor lizard tried to hide in the rock wall but was still woefully exposed. I was able to keep the dog at bay while I rescued the lizard and put it in this tree. She just stayed resting in my hand while I was able to snap this picture of her dazzling belly. A second later she was zipping up into the upper limbs to regroup.
