Can you see the reptile hiding near this window frame?

A sneaky lizard has been found hiding near a window frame – but can you spot him?

The Snake Catcher 24/7 – Sunshine Coast posted video of their “first goanna of the season” on Facebook after visiting a unit block at Point Cartwright in Queensland.

Snake catcher Stu Mackenzie points out you can see the tail of a lace monitor hiding underneath the frame – noting the species “are incredible climbers”.

Mr Mackenzie reaches to try and remove the lizard by the tail.

“He’s a bit twisted around, is he?” someone asks off camera.

The snake catcher reaches between a crack in the wall and manages to grasp the lizard’s tail.

The reptile’s head briefly pokes out, but it’s a struggle to remove him from near the frame but eventually he’s freed.

“Gorgeous,” Mr Mackenzie says.

“He’s probably only a couple of years old.”

A woman says while the lizard’s “beautiful” and she was worried about him getting into her unit.

He was able to climb to the fifth floor of the building.

Mr Mackenzie says the lizard will be relocated.

Reptiles have a knack for showing up in odd places – at least in Queensland.

Last month, a Queensland woman was shocked to find a metre-long carpet python curled up in her outdoor barbecue.

In March, a Sunshine Coast teacher had been sitting in an office adjoining a classroom when she heard a rustling noise underneath her desk and notice the tail of a red-bellied black snake.

“She’s pushed her chair back and lifted her feet up pretty quick,” Luke Huntley from Snake Catcher Noosa told Yahoo7.
