The six pictures directly above all show the same large adult gecko found in Austin, Travis County, Texas.
The gecko was dark in color when I found it underneath a large limestone rock that was covered with ice after a winter ice storm. I brought the gecko inside and immediately took the pictures in its dark phase shown above in the top row.
The gecko warmed up after a few minutes and lightened in color then I took the pictures shown in the bottom row. |
