A great picture of a salamander

Mia Cryer spotted this salamander whilst out on her walk with the dogs. Geof/ husband instantly thought yellow - toxic and after googling realised he was right, not a good thing to make into " salamander soup" We generally find these slow moving creatures squashed on the roads so have been hoping for a good picture of one. Now with the colder weather they will bury underground and hibernate but they have obviously been out enjoying the mild autumn weather.
Geof adds Apparently not toxic to the touch (though personally I wouldn’t take the risk), but ingestion of even a small piece of skin will kill you.
