How do you know he’s common? Did he have a fridge in the front garden?
It ought to wear a top hat so it appears not to be “common”.
He looks pretty fancy to me
It seems like you spotted a Common Lizard.These reptiles are widespread and usually found in gardens and parks.They are known for their small size and quick movements.
It’s mad that I forgot that these things exist in the UK. I see snakes (especially grass snakes my cat decides to bring in), slow worms, live in an area with a lot of crested newts, never seen a lizard in the wild though
