Skink in the house!

Today my kitten, Gracie brought in a skink. I was just minding my own business when I hear my Nan say "skink!" I had to get it. I didn't want it sneaking into my bed in the middle of the night! At first I was really nervous. But then I just sucked it up and grabbed it. A gush of relief went through me as I was holding this creature in my hands. I got a couple of pictures and then let the skink go into a hedge. Safe and sound. :) Here are the pictures of this amazing creature. (I was so scared the his tail was going to fall off!)
