Une matinée en balade à la campagne (2) ...Kampung Chenua, Raub

continued...

A common grasshopper on the open grassland...well camouflaged


Wild cat's whiskers...a roadside plant that attracts lots of insects especially butterflies.


A caterpillar feeding on a musseron mushroom...just like in Alice in Wonderland.


A peacock pansy, Junonia almana javana sunning itself on the leaf of a wild aubergine.


Hoof mark on the mud.


A dragonfly guarding its post at the entrance to an abandoned farm.


A tiny but attractive butterfly, the Common Posy Drupadia spp., in symbiosis with the ants on a the trunk of a Mahang sapling.


A tiny pink hibiscus-like plant, probably of the hibiscus family. A roadside herb that was very common in the olden days.


Another attractive tiny butterfly, probably a Chilades spp.


The Great Eggfly, Hypolimnas bolina.


A dusky denizen of the thicket sunning itself.


A very tall tree usually found on the fringes of villages and forest - the Terap. Has jackfruit-like fruits but a rather velvety texture with edible flesh and seeds.


The surau behind the school. Observe the dome.
