Looks a bit like a Bogong Moth Tywais , could be wrong though ... often are !

Not sure what this is but saw him on the door at the office. Quite a large fellow around 10cm long.

This looks like a Hawk Moth in the Sphingoddoidea superfamily. Could be a subspecies of Gnathothlibus erotus?

Isn't it nice Cars are not named after Insects or very few of us wold be able to remember what we drive.

Don't believe them Tywais, its the spirit of the ancestor of someone who once worked there.....Be afraid, be very afraid.

^^^ These moths also fly very fast! They chase their prey ya know.....

Great shot Goompa

possibly mimicking a cricket?

Nah mate , just peeved at me taking shots in it's environment .

Second thoughts .... could be protecting the young -uns , I don't know if spiders are that way inclined though ,

but I managed to get a shot of the same species in an infantile stage as well , same zone .

The small guy is about 1.5mm across , this larger one I am guessing to be about 5mm , still a small spider though.

Just witnessed how a lizard hunted down and ate a toad.

If you zoom into his eye you might see a chap with a camera.

Anyone know the name of this beast.......I was absolutely huge,biggest spider I have ever seen.

I did think about putting something in shot to show the scale,but thought again,no way I was putting my hand anywhere near that monster!

Reminds me of the Wolf spider Shaggy.....not 100% sure tho....

Type of Huntsman - if so then they are pretty harmless - they can bite but only in desperation

Many thanks sunshine and Mousehound for your suggestions,googled them both....a male Huntsman, (black markings on it's upper body)

I just gathered this off Wiki. Just thought I'd post incase someone gets too friendly with one.

Venom and aggression[edit]

Like most spiders apart from the Uloboridae and some Liphistiidae and Holarchaeidae,^[6] Sparassidae use venom to immobilise prey and to assist in digestion. They have been known to inflict defensive bites, but are not widely regarded as dangerous to healthy humans.^[7] Huntsman spiders are widely considered beneficial because they feed on insect pests such as cockroaches.

There have been reports of members of various genera such as Palystes,^[8]Neosparassus (formerly called Olios) and several others, inflicting bites. The effects vary, including local swelling and pain, sometimes with nausea, headache, vomiting, irregular pulse rate, and heart palpitations, indicating some systemic neurological effects, especially when the bites were severe or repeated. However, the formal study of spider bites is fraught with complications, including unpredictable infections, dry bites, shock, and nocebo effects. An investigation into spider bites in Australia, in which Sparassidae figured prominently, did not note any severe or unusual symptoms resulting from confirmed bites from some of the most notorious genera, particularly Neosparassus.

It is not always clear what provokes Sparassidae to bite people, but it is known that female members of this family will aggressively defend their egg sacs and young against perceived threats. The rarity of bites on various body parts suggests that most are accidental or incidental, resulting from inadvertent handling.^[2] Bites from Sparassids usually do not require hospital treatment. In particular no necrosis was reported in the works cited here.

A really nice Whip Snake - not dangerous

No idea what kinda squirrel this is.

Taken from Kaeng Krachan NP.

Jack...

By looking at the snout it may be a tree shrew. They resemble squirrels quite a lot save for

that elongated snout. We have many tree shrews around the house & some are quite

tame...except when the dogs see em. Hope this may help in an ID. Nice shot too.

Here's a link for the common tree shrew found out here...the same as we have around.

Solved! thanks SS51 to your 2nd link (marybirds), the 3rd pic down does match what I have. It's a Grey-bellied squirrel. Shrews as you mentioned have long snouts and generally uglier.

Incidentally, this is the blind I visited and I highly recommend anyone who wants to get close to some great birds and mammals.

Not sure but looks the same to me..It was already dark at my place and I had to use flash. And I guess my hands were shaking a little when I took this pic ..Was not satisfied by result but let it go...I mean quality of pic and the spider as well .
