Malayan Pit Viper

From Phu Khieo Wildlife Sanctuary.

This female had a young tagging along.

Both were in the shallows of a lake.

I wouldn't have paid anymore attention if not

for the nasty wound near her chest.

Never seen this before:

The above butterfly is The Clipper (Parthenos sylvia) large, common and skittish forest butterfly

What is this?

Lots of this around but don't know its ID.

Here is a swarm of Bees, I think, I did not want to get too close to find out !

Headed to my neighbours house, who were not home!

We have a hive living in our garden and they come out to say hello from time to time. The sound is a bit scary as well as the sight of them.

Shy Crab .

some exquisite photography of Nature here from Nat Geo... (thought be much better placed here, than starting a new thread in 'best of Thailand videos')

Wild Thailand (2013)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veijAq9vz10

It a completely Thai production with only two non-Thais involved ( the narrator and the director for this particular sequence set ). Everything else, filming, score, everything done by Thai Nationals. All the footage had been showing on Thai PBS in a different cut before thye did this cut for NG.

I think its wondrous. The production company is called Green Asia Production. They are working on a new project now - no idea what it is though. Its bound to be really special, these guys are world class.

......I think its wondrous.

me too! thanks for that production info Whale.

Truly amazing Thailand.... that is a great production....

Managed a quick snap whilst he was busy nectaring.

Nature underground! .... Don't want to start a new thread! So think this fits in "Nature"

Nice shot SJ....these critters are down in Ranong also and...they're

also on Bali...saw one early this morning flying about 3 inches above

the floor of our digs here. They look like a bee or wasp but have no

stinger & the missus tells me they're a type of fly. I'd love to know

more about them. Best shot I've ever seen of one SJ...I've tried to

no avail.

forest fruits...

Chiang Mai

First time I have seen on of these up a tree.

Must have been all of 6 m above the river on an overhanging tree.
