Lewis's Lizard



Last night I found a lizard under some wood on North West Arch Twizel. I called it Lucky, it is about

I googled it, we think it is a skink. Here is a picture showing the different lizards. We looked at TeAra, the encyclopedia of New Zealand and found this chart:

    Lewis enjoys studying his lizard. I am glad the glad researched him because they are such cool characters!

    We fed him some honey and sugar - does Room 13 have any other ideas for lizard food?
