actually two of our neighbors are featured in this photo, but only one is visible. there is the gecko, clinging to the wall, focused and stalking. and just outside the bottom of the frame, there is a fly. the flies here have been an endless torment, buzzing around the room. landing on food. landing on exposed skin just out of reach, perching on noses and foreheads and ears and the tips of bare toes. we are rooting for the gecko. we hope she lives a long, full life, and makes lots of babies with a taste for flies.
