I've seen geckos around my house in Deakin, usually outside around
window frames, and once on a side gate on the wall of the house. One
managed to fall inside when I opened a window one night and took a lot
of catching!
I'm pretty sure I have seen two distinct species, but certainly the Marbled Gecko. DN On 3/11/10 8:17 PM, Peter Ormay wrote: Hi Paul, There are two species of geckos native to the ACT. Both are good Kookaburra food. 1/. Stone Gecko (Diplodactylus vittatus) found in rocky areas usually under rocks. 2/. Marbled Gecko (Christinus marmoratus) found under bark, in stumps etc and sometimes in Canberra gardens in lattices etc. A photo would be handy. Cheers Peter O |
