Head west young gecko

A student recently sent me a photo of a Mediterranean house gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus) that his brother found in their region of rural Georgia. According to several state invasive species programs this amazing beast has become well established across the south.

More on this species from Texas and the Savannah River Ecological Laboratory whose original range looked like this below. Their populations in the US extend at least as far as Virginia.

Keep up the good observations Cox brothers!

Amazing St. Paddy's Day feast by the Irish beauty, Mrs. Boyd. And a birthday apple pie from my sweet mother-in-law. I am blessed.
What a season! The Moscow Mechanics placed 5th out of 20 at the Idaho FTC Championship in Meridian this past weekend. And we had the high score of the first 6 rounds with our good friends A2Z Robotics. And we were the first pick for the elimination rounds and so competed in the semifinals. I am super proud of this young, hard-working, fun, and competitive bunch! #ftc18552 #moscowmechanics #FIRSTIdaho #firstinspires #Robotics #STEM #homeschoolscience
