Lizard Man's Travels

This site is a journal of my travels and other adventures while I shift from doing postdoctoral research on tree frog ecology in Darwin, Australia, to research on digestive physiology of lizards and bats in Sede Boqer, Israel. Enough friends have been asking me for regular updates on this journey, that I thought this would be the best forum to keeep everyone up to date (including me).

fan-toed gecko

This is the star of the gecko chase story, and the last photo I took before my camera died. He led me on a rather comic chase for about 20 minutes or so. See that crevice? He liked going in there. See that 'rock' he's on? It had a consistency a bit like chalk. Every time I tried to grab this gecko, a cloud of pale powder would explode into the air, and then fall into my shoe.

Yes, the apartment is a funny little place - cozy. Lizard shoes, eh? Do they let you run up vertical walls...?
