Lizards in the Hudson valley?

[kiotee]

Wife has seen (twice ) some kind of lizard. I live near Catskill and was wondering if anyone has seen either a 5 lined skink or northern fence lizard in the river area

[walkabout]

Ive seen lots of the skink in orange county.

[greensider]

We definitely have both I have seen a fence lizard in Moroni mountains a lot of both south of fishkill also my has an atlas program where you can register things you have seen so the know populations

[wingnut]

Tons of skinks in the sterling forest area where I grew up

[Overland]

There are five-lined skinks all over the cliffs at the Gunks (Shawangunks).

[walkabout]

Wow i never seen them on the gunks but sterling forest is loaded with them for sure.

Funny you say that the other day Ronnie I was moving some wood and said to myself wow I never saw a lizard around here before... I  thought I was back in Florida. LOL
