I found another long nosed whip snake. He obviously did not like the look of me because he slid off into the undergrowth (perhaps he did not like me pulling his tail). I also discovered a ladybird. There were fewer … Continue reading →

I was pleasantly surprised to discover that there is still a small pocket of wildlife surviving along my blog walk. All of today’s photos were taken along a 30ft stretch of pavement. Most of Pattaya’s population is unaware that there … Continue reading →

Today’s star was a large centipede. I suspect that he had been displaced during land clearance activities along my blog walk. As a size reference, I cautiously (I understand that they can inflict a painful bite) photographed my thumb adjacent … Continue reading →

There was lots of wildlife to be seen this morning. Snakes, spiders, lizards, butterflies, ladybirds, and bugs were all out strutting their stuff (although technically speaking I suppose that snakes don’t strut). I even found a red eyed fly. The … Continue reading →

I found yesterday’s baby whip snake. Unfortunately the bush in which the snake is living had lots of thorns – making close up shots a bit uncomfortable. I also found another spider wrapping up an insect. And there were plenty … Continue reading →

The wet weather brought out a large green grasshopper – I had not seen one for a few weeks. There were also lots of butterflies to be found. I suspect that the small bug shown below is in the process … Continue reading →
