This is a San Francisco Alligator Lizard(elgaria coerulea coerulea).
One of his relatives was in our house
yesterday.
It took a while to get him out.
The project involved trying to
corner the guy with a multitude of
pillows and making him go into
a paper bag. (Failure.)
Then followed a multistep approach:
Letting him sit
in the closet for a while,
all escape routes sealed with tape.
Then removal of pretty much
all my clothes to find him.
And then an intricate game
with a clipboard and an
upside down plastic bowl.
(Success.)
Reptiles freak me out.
(I said it.)
