Interesting. I was never aware of that. I lived in SC for a few years and my sister still lives there, never once saw one there. I don't doubt you, I was just not aware of it.
Nice pics guys. I have a whole bunch of the little geico lizards all over tne outside of tne house but they are FAST so no pics yet. Maybe when the temp drops (113F)(45C) they'll slow down a bit
Dude, geckos rock! You'll need a zoom lens, though, they're pretty shy. And don't scare em off....they eat bugs. They're better than a bug zapper (although not as entertaining).
Thanks guys. The second shot is a seventeen year locust or cicada. I have no idea what the correct term for the first one is I have a acronym for it, LGLMFr.
