December update!
As we roll into December here are a collection of recent photos from Phuket and Khao Sok NP where I spent the past week on a school trip with some of my students. After a period of illness which caused me to cancel my trip to Sumatra I have managed to reschedule a few trips for the coming year;
December: Khao Sok NP (focussing more on birds and mammals in the areas surrounding the main lake)
February: Sumatra (Indonesia)
April: Central Thailand (Kaeng Krachen NP and everything in between!)
June/July: An eagerly awaited return to Greece (Cyclades islands, Ios, Sifnos, Milos etc)
Mangrove snake (Boiga dendrophila)
Wagler’s pit viper (Tropidolaemus wagleri)
Peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus)

Thanks Steve, hope all is well in Calderdale. I had a great time back home in July with all of the owls around, hoping it will be the same next summer!
