There was a lot of noise from the dogs next door so I went out back to investigate. The sensor lights hadn't come on so I thought it might be a cat walking the fence path of death by pointy teeth (one neighbour has a rotweiler, the other has a pair of Rhodiesian ridgebacks. I don't know what the people behind us own.) The lights came on and I could see Max the What Rabbit hopping along the fence line, stopping to thump occasionally and setting the dogs off. I wonder if he does this to keep the cats away. Smart !rabbit.

Satisfied that there wasn't an emergency, I headed back to the house and reached the back door just as a movement under the eaves caught my eye. Running along the facia board above the door was a fully grown velvet gecko on the prowl I watched as the lizard charged down onto the window glass and licked up some bugs attracted by the light. I don't know how many geckos I have since these fellows are nearly silent, unlike their tropical cousins who chirp away like mad.

New house is just that much better, now.

Any house is better when you add Geckos

Unlike Geico, that just makes things suck =8)
