I am led to believe by google that this forest scorpion is quite harmless but I ain't verifying it.

I was stung by a smaller one sometime back, it was pale yellow/beige and moved a lot quicker than this black fella. That one hurt bad!

After looking things up I understand that the Asian and Malaysian FS are very similar. Both are able to sting with the Asian FS having a stronger sting. I was told that the young hide on the adult after hatching out and when the time comes to leave the nest they have to make a break for it with many being attacked and eaten by the adult, as she has never actually seen them until this point. I was also told that the sting was like a strong Bee and it can also set of anaphylactic shock with some people.

^^^ Goomps...36 MP has it's advantages and also has it's disadvantages too.

The main dis I have is when trying to reduce the image size MB > KB and still

keep it "forum manageable"...after the crop. The reduced size can still be

quite big in MB & I'm runnin low on remaining fuel for posting while still trying

to deliver a decent image. Thanks for the kudo !

Had a look around to see if I could find out what kind of snake this is.

Going by the markings I came to the conclusion it is a Burmese Python.....was I correct?

Thanks GH...3 decent shots outta 20. Was a very windy day and it was just

a few meters away. By Yellow Vented...does that mean they have a yellow

patch back by their bum? It's parents do.

SS please Keep away from the nest.

Birds often abandon the nest and sometimes their chicks if they know you have been in the nest.

I like the building work, nicely woven together.

@ GH...Thanks for that info.

@RW...I only look into the nest but never touch it.

I'm on a 12 foot ladder usually, if the nest is near

the house or in our hanging plants. Kinda awkward

to peer inside and for a shot it can be difficult to get

contorted for said shot. We have weaver birds up a

few trees behind our house, lovely nests & how they

build em, however me ladder ain't tall enough!

I reckon it's amazing how birds weave their nests

and what a fine job they do.

Belated Happy Easter or Happy Easter Monday!

Excellent work - again! Where was this shot? Most likely Parnara apostata - The Dark Straight Swift. Common through Thailand.
