Gecko with wings

I peered down into a spider lily one day and this is what I saw looking up at me, a gecko with wings. The wings, of course, were those of an unlucky moth, which the gold dust day gecko had snagged from behind. The moth struggled a good deal, but there was only ever going to be one winner in this contest.

  I’m sure he was happy. It took him a while to wrestle it down though.

Amazing shot. Poor moth, but the gecko looks highly delighted though a little daft.

  It was a decent-sized moth, so I bet the gecko was happy. They always tend to look a bit bemused, regardless of what they’re up to. It makes them rather endearing, though they’re also ruthless hunters.
