A wild ride...

So I get into the office the other morning and find a gecko clinging to the base of the windscreen of my car. Its about a 25km drive on highway, so it must have been quite a ride.

Functionally equivalent to you or I clinging to the outside of a jumbo jet as it flies across the country!

Anyway, it didn't seem to have come to any harm, and given their ability to cling to walls and roofs I don't think it was ever in danger of being blown off. After about ten minutes it lost the glazed look on its face and scuttled away, and I hope it can make a new home here.
