Christine I had a snake that came through the hole at the bottom of our door of our apartment and I found out it's a male striped keel back snake I got water in my aquarium for him and my mom and I both bought stripe as I named him a container of red wriggler worms and baby night crawler worms and I found him two slugs to eat
@@PatriciaHinkler they are very fast semi aquatic snakes. I’ve only seen two. Good you looked after it….hope you released it in a suitable terrain! Thanks for sharing. Cheers
@@cc-pl5qp thanks so much for the kind comment! Still a lot of room for improvement!!! I use a standard Newer video light that slots into the horse shoe in the camcorder. I diffuse the light with some old packing foam. Hope that helps!
@@madhuraagashe6270 thank you for your comment, it’s sincerely appreciated. I think all of the trails are good for birds, including the main road that runs through the park right up to the peak. You can also try the lowlands, like Poring, where there will be different species. Have a great day!
@@ChristianBassettNature Freaking good stuffs man. Beautiful pics. I stayed there in Pendant cottage but they did not allow me to do herping at night inside the park
@@pretloukik that’s ridiculous… I mean you pay to stay there and they say you can’t go for a walk at night??? I think you can but would have to do the trails so the rangers don’t bother you. Have a great day!
They are very different…. Some sites at Bangladesh have amazing corals. And it’s great there for macro too. You can also dive sites in lembeh and bunakan as they are so close. Komodo is amazing …. Sharks manages eagle rays grantees. Some ok macro too. I’m f you could only visit one I would probably go with Komodo! But depends what you want to see!
@@ChristianBassettNature thanks for replying I been diving at Komodo few times never been Bunaken& lembeh . I was also looking at NOMAD DIVER, do u like them?
@@robertng138 in that case you should definitely go to Manado. Yes, I love Nomad…. It’s on the best side of the island and surrounded by nature. Just a few rooms too. Staff are fantastic and they have best dive guide! Lembeh is incredible too and arguably the best place for macro. I also saw 8 different species of octopus there. If you can spend a couple of days at Bunaken/Siladen too. Have 100s of giant green sea turtles there. Manado is a unique place to dive. I just came back from there but will be a while before I post the video. Hope this helps.
Thank you for the that….. we have quite a few tarantulas here. But this large one I only saw the once in a carpark of all places! The Singapore blue tarantula is the holy grail here, which I am yet to find. Have a great day!
Hi @Christian! :) I am working on yt video project with Ze Frank, for True Facrs - about the Oriental Hornet and I was wondering if I could show a clip from your video?❓ (...Would credit you of course!) 🙏? // Also if you want to talk more about video footage and ussage - I can email you!
Hi Becky, sure I don’t mind. Would be good if you can send me a link to what you create. Thank you also for crediting myself and channel. I do have some footage of interesting hornets from singapore too. I have never posted it.
Holy smokes! so many marine critters on my bucket list! Really shocked to see the frogfish swallowed a fish much bigger than its body. Awesome video👌🤩👏🏻
I"m blown away by your videography and the variety of wildlife you were able to film here. Amazing! I'm relocating to Malaysia soon, and would love to learn more about how to find wildlife and film like you do while I'm there.
Hi Patrick, thank you for your very flattering kind words, it’s sincerely appreciated. Still a lot of room for improvement and many more species to find! I would be more than happy to share information and tips. You can email me anytime! Have a great day !
I’m using the Sony camcorder AX700. For lights I use a basic small panel video light: brand is Newer. I am currently looking for a new camera. Hope this helps. Best
This video is so great too! Twice a frog fish catching a fish as big as him! The melibe that caught a shrimp was awesome too, especially as we could see the shrimp moving in "mouth" of the melibe. What is the camera that you use?
Thank you for the positive comments. Sony Camcorder AX700. It’s quite old but I believe they may be releasing an upgraded version in Autumn this year!!
Great video! Which camera do you use please? I think I will go to Bangka :) Was it easy to find the dugong? Do you know the name of the octopus at 18:46? Thank you!!!
Thanks a lot for the comment! It’s one of the best locations for Dugongs but not guaranteed. That said there is a high chance. The best location for them is very near Nomad Divers. For the Octopus: good question. Originally I thought it was a baby king armed octopus as they are common there. However it may just be a small reef octopus. For visiting Bangka: great choice: Lembeh strait and bunakan are less than hour away by boat too. So could mix your trip with a few days in each location. Cheers
@@ChristianBassettNature Nature will decide if I will see mister or misses Dugong ;) 10 years ago I went on a liveaboard in North Sulawesi: Bunaken, Bangka, Lembeh and up North to Sangihe. But I don't really remember how it was in Bangka.
Saw once like yesterday (near sengkang riverside park) & then went online search it was highly venomous 😰 (Good thing it looks chill & ignored us while moving under bushes.. its skin was black and shiny, very beautiful!)
