Stripy Animals

On July 30, 2017July 30, 2017 By Nick'swildlifeIn Butterflies, Moths and Caterpillars, Lizards, Snakes, The Wildlife3 Comments

After seeing seven snakes on the last visit to our herping spot we were pretty sure we wouldn't see as much wildlife on our latest visit, but once again our spot suprised us. Not long into our walk we almost stumbled upon this Malayan Banded Wolf Snake (Lycodon subcintus), literally. It was right on the …

Our new herping spot is proving to be incredibly diverse and every time we visit it we discover something new. The snakes have definitely been the highlight for me and so far we've seen 4 new species. Here are some of my favourite snake pictures. This vibrant Red-necked Keelback (Rhabdophis subminiatus) This lovely White-spotted Slug-eating …

My recent posts have all been focused around herpatofauna (reptiles and amphibians) but that doesn't mean that we haven't been seeing anything else of note. In fact quite the opposite. On our night walks we've been finding tons of fascinating insects. So without further ado, here are some of my favourite spineless creatures we've seen …

Not your average Saturday night.

After last saturdays success we decided to head to our new spot again this weekend to see what suprises it had in store for us this time. Within five minutes we'd spotted our first snake.......once again it was a red-necked keelback. We suspect it was the same one that we spotted first last time as …
