Mo'o camo is excellent ... he even attained the varigated redness of your pointer.... must feel like Knott's Berry Farm to him.

holy moly. your anonymity is forever compromised...

[edited for a punctuation error that I'd ruthlessly downgrade in an undergrad essay... sigh. let's see: the air-conditioning is out, the kids are REALLY loud, though happy, and the ex-husband is in town and staying here...]

Nice cropping. That finger is probably more used to giving people birds than geckos.

Is that a place that houses former Monty Python cast members? Do they also have cleesedromes and chapmandromes? Maybe this guy was just looking for a bobdrome?

bebeting says:

Oh my! This is too cute! Is he still alive? Does he kill other gecko's as a child in your footsteps? :o)
Posted 36 months ago. ( permalink )

Bill Adams says:

Thanks, Everyone!

I don't know if he's still alive, Irene...I look for him everyday in the garage, where I let him go. Though I didn't train him how to use the electric garage door opener, I'm sure he could get out if he wanted to.

There's another gecko of similar color who hangs out in the garage eatin' bugs and stuff. I see it most every day. I was hoping they'd bond. I'll continue to keep my eyes open for the little fella.

catbutler says:

Bill, are you sure about this gecko ID? Check this little guy's toenails! It sure LOOKS like a gecko, but it seems to me their little toes are round with no toenails. Now I gotta catch me one and examine it for toenails!

Don't know how I missed this one!

And your fingerprint detail is awesome!
Posted 36 months ago. ( permalink )

Bill Adams says:

You know, I don't know. Looking at it's eyes, the shape of its pupils are different from that of an adult gecko or anole. In the other shot, if you look at the large version, you can see the little grippers on the bottom of it's feet, which initially led me to believe it might be a gecko.

I've never seen one this small.

Maybe it's a snake with legs?

catbutler says:

Up there at the very beginning, Archer referred to this as a "mo'o camo" which might suggest that it's a chameleon? camo is not a hawaiian word, to my knowledge (no c's). So I'm not sure what she meant exactly. But I have great respect for her local knowledge....

What we need is a herp expert.

For now, it's a really cute Gecko! And I have seen them really, really small (they spring from nowhere on our lanai, since we have a resident adult population of the required reproductive characteristics).

Bill Adams says:

I don't speak Pidgin and am pre-programmed to not remember any I might hear or read, so I don't know what Archer's words meant.

The only chameleons we have here on the island, to my knowledge, are the Jacksons and the fake chameleons, also known as Anoles.
