Well, an eft, actually. I found this little eft late at night on a sidewalk after heavy rains. (The one other eft I have found was during a heavy rain as it wandered across a road in mid-day.) Length was about 7cm. It was on the concrete, frozen in a warning poze, with its back arched up and tail curled. I think I’ve seen an illustration of this–it is supposed to display the red spots. (I did not have my camera with me.) I captured it and kept it for a day to get some photos. I placed it on this moss and it froze for a moment, then began lumbering off in a rather deliberate manner. Funny, it did not attempt to burrow like other salamanders and lizards–I guess it trusts in its chemical defenses. I believe the red spots are thought to be aposematic, and they are known to have toxic skin secretions–more information here.

Way too cute!! Love him and his spots and his pose – to humans, it’s just cute.
Hi, I’m an admin for a group called Stuff With Four Legs, and we’d love to have this added to the group!
Beautiful Salamanders…….Excellent.
We used catch the adults while wading at a small state park in upstate New York…a highlight of our summer family picnics. (Not sure my older sisters would agree …)
These red efts are handsome little creatures!!
Beautiful animal.
yes, what a beautiful, amazing little creature!
Gorgeous. Great shot.
