I've heard it said that lizards in the home are lucky.
In particular, geckos.
I had plenty of geckos at my last home, mostly outside, but occasionally one would find its way inside.
There were plenty of skinks too.
Here in this new home, I haven't seen a single gecko or a skink either.
But I heard odd noises from the front porch late last Saturday afternoon and went out to see what the heck was going on out there.
I saw a blue tongue lizard trying to hide under the "gecko house".
Probably just after a bit of shade I suppose.
Naturally I raced for the camera and hoped he'd still be there when I got back with it.
He was.
It was a hot day here in Adelaide, so after taking this photo, I put a small dish of water within reach for him, then left him alone.
He's disappeared now, living somewhere in the gardens, and he wasn't in my home, just on the front porch, but I still think I'm lucky just for having seen him at all.
there's always one show off in the crowd.
That actually made me giggle-snort, thanks!
ReplyDeleteThose appear to be real birds. What a show off.
ReplyDeleteWhatcha lookin at me for?
ReplyDeleteLove it. Thank you.
It looks like he might have been a bit of a night owl and had a wild night out with the birds at Nightingale's Nightclub the night before!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Perhaps he thinks he's a bat!
ReplyDeleteThe Cranky; you're welcome :)
ReplyDeleteJoanne; they certainly look real to me.
Elephant's Child; love your comment :)
Lee; perhaps he's hung over?
Vicki; or just batty :)
I wonder if he, or she, stayed up (upright) too late the night before.
ReplyDeleteI laughed and I'm still grinning, it's really ever so cute.
ReplyDeleteMade me smile....so funny.
