Wednesday rain and clouds,
Thursday rain,
Friday thunderstorms and a lot of rain,
Saturday thunderstorms and a lot of more rain
and for Sunday sun, no clouds! thought sounds not bad and decided to make one more Trip to the Tessin. All was as usual, Stand up at 4.00 h and start the Trip at 4.30 h arrived at Valle Morobbia at 8.15 h, Temperature was 12 Degrees and sunny.
The first Reptile I expected to found was Podarcis muralis, but it was a young Lacerta bilineata.

At Noon most of the Lizard were basking in the shadow, not much activity anymore, so I decided to drive back home.
