Behaviour and Diet

The Four Spot eats various insects and other invertebrates, but they also like to lick soft, sweet fruit, pollen and nectar. These geckos are most active after the cooler months of June-August. Their mating season falls between October and the first weeks of May. During this period the females lay two eggs 3–5 weeks apart. Up to 6 pairs of eggs are laid per year. At a constant temperature of 28°C, the young hatch after 40–45 days and measure about 30 mm.

    ... into the novel goes such taste as I have for rational behaviour and social portraiture. The short story, as I see it to be, allows for what is crazy about humanity: obstinacies, inordinate heroisms, “immortal longings.”
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)

    Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandated—serious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.
