Kalimantan was disappointing and wonderful
We had 6 cancellations in the last week before we went
[next time we will take deposits before booking everything]
Those who went are already booked in again for trips next year
Here are a few teasers about this trip
rest while you can
klotok up the river
Our taxi to base camp1
Ross with a retic
Some flutterbyes
Another flutterbye
With B Real, Banjarmasin reptile club who do great work spreading the truth about reptiles
Forest dragon
Our team
Gecko
Another dragon
So many bugs of every shape and colour
This was huge
Moth
Mangrove snake, boiga dendrophila, cincin emas
Glis with a friendly flutterbye
Shinta with local kids
We spent a great few hours with these young conservationists
Many of them had never seen a snake up close before
Wonderful evening that will be a part of every tour from now on
These groups are the future of conservation in Indonesia
Just because I could
Suppose I better put a snake in?
How gorgeous is this??
MMMMMMMMMMMM bacon
HUGE boiga cynadon
I have searched for these many times
red headed krait
bungarus flaviceps, tadung anggang
Finally my holy grail came right into camp to visit instead
Everyone was a bit disappointed I wouldnt let them play with it
But were a minimum of 12 hours from any medical care and these guys can be deadly
plenty of time to play too
For the first time in my life I felt old here. Walked out about 5 metres and had to sit down. Never had problems with anything like this before. Ross Mcgibbon did the guardian angel bit and guided me over both trips. Otherwise Id still be sitting there
there are hundreds more photos
but these give a general idea
