Wildlife safari morning

Up at 5.15 am to be picked up by Jungle Joe & head off to Khao Sak National Park.
Didn't start well as it was very low cloud bad light and then about half an hour of heavy rain. Thankfully we didn't get too wet but it kept all the birds and critters away.
So we started looking for little things - found a rare Phuket horned lizard, an iridescent tarantula (who wouldn't come out of his hole for a photograph)
Then the rain stopped and we found a troupe of long tailed macaques with one pig tailed female who they had adopted as a baby and as a result a new hybrid baby with pig tail facial characteristics but a long tail. At this point my camera started to misbehaviour 🤷🏼‍♀️
We were told by the rangers that nobody had seen the otters today. So we didn't try for them but headed off to find the dusky langurs.
By the end of the morning (2pm) we were back at the car for lunch and knackered.
An afternoon of downloading & chill before early dinner at the hotel buffet cos we were too tired to go out.
No photos cos we were using real cameras!Leer más
