Geckos

While tearing apart an old deck in my backyard I caught a pair of nice sized Mediterranean geckos.

Luckily I was able to catch both of them without the loss of either’s tail, which is good for the gecko, seeing that the loss of its tail, which is a survival mechanism, costs precious energy to regrow.

Afterwards I released them in our firewood pile. I have written a couple of other entries on these cool lizards. Check them out here and here.
