31/09 - Upper Peirce (27 Nov 09)

We had another great IMOG outing at Upper Pierce with 16 participants. The condition of the terrain was wet and muddy, not what we expected because the weather was dry the last few days before the outing. Some parts of the track was blocked by fallen trees and we had to skirt around or walk in between the trails. Nevertheless, the tough condition did not stop us from shooting. Apart from some common subjects, we saw a Huntsman spider eating a Harvestman, a pair of mating common Two-tailed spider, a spider with a triangular abdoman, a Green Tree snail, few Copper Cheek frogs but no chance of getting close to them. The star of the trip was the beautiful male damselfly, Libellago Aurantiaca. We ended at 12.30 pm and had Bak Kut Teh for lunch at Sin Ming Road.
