Phelsuma madagascariensis (Madagascar Day Gecko)
A diurnal, one of the largest species of geckos which inhabits the whole east coast of Madagascar. It lives on the eastern coast of Madagascar and typically inhabits rainforests and dwells on trees. It feeds on insects and nectar; like to lick soft, sweet fruit, pollen and nectar. It can reach a total length of about 22 cm. The body color is light green or bluish green. The skin between the scales often has a light color. A rust-coloured stripe extends from the nostril to behind the eye. On the back there are brownish or red-brick coloured dots which may form a thin line along the mid back. These geckos do not have eyelids, and they have flattened toe pads.

Hello Bayram,
Superb capture of this Madagascan Gecko, an endemic species. The POV, pose, sharpness and lighting are superb.
Madagascar must be fantastic to visit to experience all the endemic forms of life. Perhaps you have more fine images to show us!
Thanks for sharing this,
Regards, Ivan

Hello Bayram,
very nice capture of this madagascan gecko.
Fine colours, good POV and sharpness.
Only nit is the big text, it's pretty distracting.
Well done.

Merhaba Bayram
This is a great capture of this gecko!
I like very much the lighting, close approach and clear details got here.
The vivid green tones stands out so beautifully from the white ground.
The only nit would be the size of your name and copyright, in my opinion is too big, and it takes of some attention from the main subject.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

Hola Bayram,
Bu dilberi nereden buldun Allah aşkına! 2005de Madagaskar'a gittiğinden haberim yoktu. Bu kadar net ve mükemmel bir çekim görmeyeli bayağı uzun bir zaman oldu!

Hocam güzel gekko! Ama yerlisini her zman tercih ederim. Sağolun paylaşımınız için. Bahadır.

Hocam sayenizde bizim sürüngen aşkımız bitmicek valla. Ellerinize sağlık.

Impresionante y elegante toma Bayram, con unos colores muy conseguidos y una estupenda luz.
Saludos.

Yine nefis bir Madagaskar gekkosu. Hayvan biraz hımbıl görünüyor. adeta poz vermiş:) Detaylar da renkler de harika. Eline sağlık. Sağlıcakla.

Merhaba Hocam,
Çok güzel ve sevimli bir gekoyu paylaşmışsınız. Pet olarak fazlaca satılıyor bildiğim kadarıyla, tüketmezler inşallah. Niye böyle olduğu da belli. Hayvanlar aleminde göze güzel görünmemek lazım, güzelse hiç farketmiyor hangi gruptan olduğu. Hayvanlar çirkin görünme yönünde de bir evrim sürecine girmeli bence :)
Bu arada böceklerin yanında nektarla da (bitkisel kökenli olduğunu düşünürsek) beslenmesi ilginç geldi.
Paylaşım için teşekkürler.

Very nice gecko bro! Well done.

Hi uncle...What a shot and amazing information...Detail and colur very clear too...Well done uncle, take care....Regards...Cypturk

ne kadar değişik renki bir kertenkele:) sevimli gibi :d

One of Your oldest shots, but a very quality one indeed. Beautiful diagonal composition, great lights and colors. Capture itself is absolutely fabolous, which I don't like is the red sign, the font's too big and the color's too aggressive. Probably at that time You didn't know how You can make Your photos even more artistic with this kind of things like frames and signs. But the gecko is wonderful, no doubt.
Tfs, have a nice day, László

Hi Bayram,
This is an interesting photo of a Gecko. Did you photograph the animal on the floor inside a house in Madagascar?

I say interesting, because - thanks to your perfect focus - one can see the different sizes of scales on the right side of the body and also the amazing fact, that its tail was only once broken off i.e. halfway up the tail.

In Madagascar - like Galapagos Islands - are so many unique animals, and it is thanks to TrekNature and your excellent photo, that one can learn about them.
Have a nice week-end,
Kind Regards
Ingrid
