Post your inhouse wildlife shots here. No caged animals.

A small lizard got into the house via a piece of wood last week. I was a bit concerned that it would disturb the huntsman spiders that also roam around. However it seems to have settled itself inside the lining of the curtains.

I hope it's not one of those mafia recruited keylogging lizards.

I think that's a skink of some sort. Pretty cool! There's so many varieties, but a Google search with your state name may give you a definitive ID.

I'm pretty sure that its good luck too, but i know that they keep some pesky bugs at bay, especially mosquitos and things like that.
 
Get its tail it will grow back and will be a good luck charm

This little guy was in my house the other day. He was quite cheery and after he cleaned himself bid me adieu and retired to the backyard fernery.

Natrix natrix. or ring snake (i guess it is)

Not exactly in my house, but in in my garden. The white wall behind it is my house.

Actually it´s the first time i´ve seen a snake in my area (Austria, Eisenstadt) uncaged.

edit: .Andy, thats a great lil bugger 🙂
