More backyard gecko watching

It's been a busy and fun week with family in town and more trips to the beach than we've had all year. Sadly, I've taken more pictures of the geckos along the fence than our visitors and/or our kids. I guess we were never in much of a photographic mood. So, here's an interesting one of our resident gecko. He is in the middle of changing his colors (grey to green); the tufts around his head look like loose skin but they were gone once he went completely green. Not sure what the technical terms for this is, I'll have to do more research. And he's also doing that thing with his neck, but this time it's a different color. I don't know why, but these tiny creatures are fascinating me. In the following weeks I will be rolling out a new blog feature: The Gecko Cam!
