Adam, that was my first thought but then look at the tail? that's not a regenerated tail, and unless it's been cut with something very sharp it looks normal.
The only house gecko i would say would be H. mabouia but im still not sure

Nat: Most tokays are nasty but lots of people over-emphasise the bite of a tokay..ie "my tokay just ripped my hand off", the most they actually do is rip 'n' twist, but they very rarely draw blood..however, some big males are indeed very capable of this.

Actually frank, adam did just happen to find it, granted it didn't go too far or put up much of an attack when I stuck my head under to get the shot


Vegemite the local fly catcher and flying ball of furry trouble



Adam caught us lunch up mt beerburrum


Local wild fishies from yesterdays trip about half an hour from home.

Here are a couple pictures I took just a few minutes ago. It's a male California Quail that was right next to house feeding on spilled birdseed (I've never seen them there before). The pictures are super-crappy because it's cloudy and the windows are perpetually dirty.

I'm not your neighbor, you Bakersfield trash.

Following along the bird theme...

Cockatos are very common here, often just hanging around


Not sure what type this is, they're pretty small


Lorikeets are also very common, but amazingly hard to spot even when you know they're right in front of you. When I was getting up before dawn I was always spotting them feeding just outside our office window.


Cassowary are thankfully not common this far south in australia. Adam showed me this one at dreamworld. This is the only bird I'm scared of.

I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions
