Hey. This is a catch up post so I honestly cannot remember what happened that day. However, judging from the pictures, I must have had a blast! There are so many wonderful things I saw on new years day 2017.
Dragonfly!
Darn. The squirrel is so super cute. Look at its round head and chubby cheeks!
Damselfly. They are related to dragonflies but are somewhat different. I'm not sure exactly how but I think it's the wing colour.
Greater Racket-tailed Drongo. You can tell from the two long tails ending in larger roundish fins hanging from the bird's tail.
I have no idea what this butterfly is.
More Damselflies.
A banded woodpecker. They are supposed to be fairly common in the forests but I think this is the only time to date that I've ever seen one. We spotted it in the National Orchid Garden
The closest I can find to this in my guidebook is a Striated Heron. It matches the best but it doesn't seem right either. This one is more bluish and white instead of grey and yellow round the beak. I think it's a different bird but I have no idea what.
