One of my favorite creatures here in Hawaii, is the Hawaiian Gecko. They roam the walls of everyone's homes - inside and out,, and eat bugs. At night if the light is on in a room, and bugs are flying around on the outside of the window as they are attracted to the light, these brightly colored little guys sneak around and feast. As they do, you can see their cute little bellies pressed up against the window.
If they get frightened they may drop their tail - so some are seen with a short stump or a skinny new little tail starting to grow.
I've heard it said that having geckos in your home brings good luck.
Although some people are grossed out by them, they know they are always welcome in our home. I enjoy their company and their beautiful color!
