[Leica] IMG: Unknown reptile

[Douglas Sharp]

Hi All,

this little chap is the first reptile of this kind I 
ever saw in our garden.

Seems to be a quite young lizard, but I can't find any 
pictures of one that looks anything like it (or is it a 
newt?)

Would appreciate any help in finding out exactly what 
it is.

TIA for your help
