    This chap was on the top of my stepladder, it had climbed 6 feet up to get there and was difficult to shake off, really impressive how well it could grip to smooth surfaces.

    From the shape, I am guessing some type of narrow-mouthed frog although I cannot find a picture that matches. The gf was helpful, in her world there are two kinds of frog: eat and don't eat. This one falls into the 'don't eat' group. Google translated her Thai name into Tree Frog, although I can't find a match there either. He was about 7cm from nose to tail.

    Came across a nest with three hungry chicks whilst cutting the hedge, the mother wasn't best pleased.
    However, we work closely together now and I've been feeding her and watching her feed her little ones.

    What type of bird is it anyone?

    Every morning I go out for an early brisk walk. This is a time snakes come out to bask on the road and also the time that all the farmers are busy going to and fro on various wheeled vehicles. When the two come together it is curtains for the snake. On the plus side, I get to see (dead) snakes that I'd otherwise never see and they are easier to photograph when they don't move.

    I have previously posted a Striped Kukri snake and a Rice paddy snake (aka Yellow-bellied water snake.)

    Two more this week. If anyone can help with identification then that would be good.

    I think the first one is a Bronzeback:

    The second one I don't know. Possibly a Triangle keelback?

    ^ I think the second one is probably a red-necked keelback. They're venomous and classed as dangerous now.

    Possibly, I am really not sure. I looked at Internet pics of a bunch of keelbacks, I think it is in that group somewhere. I didn't pick i up to feel the scales, in the photo some scales do look keeled. The Internet pics of the Red-necked seem to have a yellow collar which was missing on mine, also a more clearly chequered pattern.

    That said, my photos don't exactly match Internet pics of the Triangle.

    As I learn more about these things I see more regional variations than I'd expected.

    ^ The chequered keelback often has a red tinge as well.

    European female Blackbird....in Germany it's called "Amsel".....we don't have them in the USA, but a close relative of it, is the American "Robin".....looks and acts very similar....usually 3 to 5 young.....hope this helps. - Cheers, Amina Christoph














    I agree, it's a female European Blackbird. - In Germany, they are called "Amsel." - We don't have this species in the USA, but its cousin, the American Robin, which appears and acts very similar. Great pictures....thanks for sharing them.

    Mention on another thread of a pet capybara
    Owners of a futsal place near us have a few animals, mainly macaws, emu, and a family of 6 capybara


    Patagonian mara
