It is a common skink. An exact color match is hard to find, mainly because colors change slightly according to season, breeding periods, and encounters with predators, prey ,and other skinks. Can't go by tails, either, because they can release their tails when necessary and a new one grows in its place, which makes their tails short and stubby at times.
