Well as some of you may know, my wife and I have relocated to the UK. It was a move that I was looking forward to, but also fearing, as I knew I wouldn't be having any herping adventures for a while. This in mind, I made it my task to make the most of …
As most of you are aware, I love finding snakes, and they have been the focus of almost all of my recent posts. So for this post I decided I'd choose some different subjects for those of you who are sick of seeing pictures of snakes or those of you who are ophidiophobic (fear snakes). …
So I had just finished writing my post Wildlife by Torchlight about how lucky I've been to see so much cool wildlife in my garden and my head was a little fuzzy from staring at a computer screen for a while. I decided I'd go for a quick stroll around my garden to see if I could …
We moved house again...... My partner and I are now living in a different part of Thailand and of course a new house and a new area means new wildlife to find. Our weekends have been busy so far since we moved which hasn't left much time for finding wildlife but luckily our new garden …
Another sunny weekend and another national park to explore.

Last weekend we packed up all our things and moved to a new house out of the town and nearer to beach (1 minute away). The house is slowly starting to feel like home and all of our things are unpacked. Time for some exploring and wildlife spotting! These seems to be a lot of dragonflies …
During the rainy season here it can get a bit overwhelming when it rains for days and days on end. You begin to wonder if you'll ever have dry shoes to wear and if you'll ever be able to do anything outside. I get the impression too sometimes that even the wildlife starts to get fed …
On our way home from the beach one day we spotted a small grey shape crossing the road. As we got closer we realised it was a little turtle moving from one field to the next. Just a small grey turtle not much to look at, but wait....... Look at that little face, and check out …
So, what better way to start my new blog, than with the species of snake that I see the most here in Thailand; the Ornate Tree Snake (Chrysopelea ornata).
