As you know I can tell a stork from a heron but this wee guy I'm not sure about. ;) jacko1 - Jun, 25 2010 11:06am Hi Fred, apart from the fact that this is not a stork, I know from experience that if you grab one of these by the tail it will shed it & grow another & if a biggish one grips you on the finger it hurts! porto - Jun, 25 2010 01:06pm :) Thanks Tony, I must try that sometime if I can catch one! jacko1 - Jun, 25 2010 04:06pm Fred, sit quietly outside a bar, under some shrubs, one will fall on you, trust me! porto - Jun, 25 2010 05:06pm Tony, now I know where the expression 'leaping lizards' comes from. :)
