TWITCHING TAILS

No not that sort but an actual tail that I found whilst out searching for Brown Argus in Derbyshire.
Its's the tail piece of a Slow Worm.

I've been told about this shedding of the tail to escape predators but never realized the shed bit still wriggled.

Here's one I saw earlier complete, sunning itself on the road.

Dipped on the Argus but there's plenty of time for that one if we ever get any more sunshine.
