David48 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 if i remember right from issan ozzi tony, you can dry this and feed it to animals,, something like that anyway,,lol The fish love it ... but it's not fed to them. I presume because the fish eat it all, thus no replacement plant to grow again. Good protien from what I know. But I diverse. Most of my stuff is captured at Dawn as that is when the Farm is most active with stuff you might be interested in. Some more Farm photos below ...

scunner Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 What's going to be the fate of the mice (??) in that cage shaggy? Surely it isn't the Hunger Games for them? I'll second Shaggy's comments, it's been a pleasure to see all your sterling work, as a lurker and a bit part poster I'll actually have some photos to contribute later this year, as I'll be in SE Asia with business initially, then tourist mode, planning to go to Bangkok, Hua Hin and then Ooop North - or wherever my feet carry me Hope you've already eaten scunner,......maybe this photo will answer your question? They are actually field rats,quite tasty in fact but a bit fiddly to eat. Look forward to seeing your photos Oh I'm fine shaggy, after all, I won't be eating them Have eaten the odd exotic item, so maybe one day I'll add some free range rice fed field rat, after all organic raised meat is da in ting with the Yuppies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robby nz Posted May 14, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted May 14, 2014 Up to his neck in the swamp collecting the lily seed heads for the market. He offered me some when I walked past him when he was starting the pump to put water into the paddy. But no problem for me to get my own. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T_Dog Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Noticed this morning that a banana plantation I bike past often has had concrete posts put throughout the hillside it sits on. Haven't had a chance to ask my wife yet what is growing on them but it looks like some sort of cactus. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron19 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I will have to get more thai minded and not get upset when I see things like this.I see this pair of old bantams every morning while I'm walking the dogs.The pair were inseparable,very rarely more than a foot apart and when I saw this today I couldn't help feel for the rooster as you can see, he didn't want to leave his mate even now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron19 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 ^^ Ron, you've really nailed that photo ... Thanks for that,I'm happy with the way the new camera is working out although I'm still learning how to drive it.That one was taken with the camera in one hand and a restless rottweiler cross on a leash in the other hand but i must admit he is starting to know when I am using the camera he is required to keep still. I have a new tripod on the way that should arrive here within the next hour so what I will do for sunrises will be to go on the motorbike for the shots and then walk the dogs after.Sunsets are a different story as I have to talk to the wife about being allowed out after what happened last time.

Too bad the BBQ them to death.... but I guess it saves their fingers ... I gather the oil eats away the skin~ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goompa Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 Does the oil eat away the skin on the fingers of the cashew nut collectors or does the oil eat away the skin on the cashew nut ? I am not familiar with cashew nut production , I do however remember that a guided tour in Phuket years ago included a view and rundown of the cashew nut process , but I was otherwise amiss in avoiding the ^ Klingon ^ that accompanied me on that reconnaissance ! SWAMBO has no idea either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
