So she unrolled the garden water hose and felt something on her hand.
Running up the back of her hand onto her jacketed arm. A Little Dwarf Gecko.
So come and watch the fun here with a woman and a gecko in the garden.
I have to upload the post early as we have a lot of work today and I have to fit things in wherever I can. It was a pleasant surprise for Marian and she came to the study window to show me her surprise.
Come and look.
The little gecko sat there thinking if it should take a ride on her arm.
It is a Cape Dwarf Gecko (Lygodactylus capensis)
But it might also be a another type of gecko as this one has no stripes on it's flanks.
Oh no, Marian saw that I had the camera and started to protest.
But I only told her that the gecko was an aspirant model and she wanted the world to see her beauty. The gecko knows that I am on Hive Lol.
Whoops! The little one ran up over her shoulder into her jacket's hoodie.
So I told her to take the jacket off slowly next to the Jasmine bush.
Quite a slow process so as not to scare the little one, as it could be a high jump and it could get hurt.
For a last minute the gecko posed before it jumped across into the bush.
She wanted to make sure that ya all could see her lithe body hahaha.
And there you have it, a lovely early morning surprise. So first it was a baby mole, then a live frog in the bathroom and now a gecko.
You should have seen Marian's face when I told her the next one would be a Puff Adder snake hahaha.
It is not only the squirrels and the birds that keep us busy here, as the area is crawling with nature's residents.
We hope that you enjoyed the post.
And That's All Friends!
