'Sleeping beauty'
Resting in a depression on a large vine (lliana) along the trail. It is here for hours, until the rain poured.
Inasmuch as its venom is lethal, the viper is quite vulnerable in this passive state - can easily be picked up and killed by locals, especially for food in this region. In fact, this viper species, like the gaboon, is a popular animal protein source.
Being found behind, or beyond the cutline of the forest reserve determines survival - life, or death for the spectacular wildlife.

I have monitored several dozen individuals of this species (and their breeding activities) since 2009. This particular individual was first spotted on 11 April 2019 with a new egg case; by 11 May 2019 a second egg case had been added. During a visit on 15 June 2019, the spiderlings from the first egg case had hatched, had moulted in the web next to the egg case and had dispersed. No subsequent visits were made to check on the fate of the second egg case.
Photos: spider looking gravid on 2 May 2019, egg cases on 11 May 2019 and first encounter (shortly after depositing first egg case?) on 11 April 2019.

There was a thick layer on algae on the water. Most of the animals had a coating of the algae on their legs or entire bodies.

Πράσινη Χελώνα (Chelonia mydas)Παρατηρητής
kimberlylrandalΠεριγραφή
This is a green sea turtle that saw its reflection in my camera's dome port. Out of curiosity it almost swam into me! I took this before I had to move from out behind my camera and look to see if it was going to hit me. In retrospect, I wish I had kept shooting. But, just observing these guys is amazing in its own right. Nowhere in the world have I seen as many turtles on every dive as we did in Palau. Repeatedly, we'd see at least 3 or 4 turtles on most dives and I remember one dive where we saw at least 10.
Palau was the first country to declare their waters a sanctuary for sharks and as a result of their efforts the fish and turtle populations seem equally healthy. Absolutely fantastic to see that their efforts are paying off with healthy reefs, healthy fish populations, healthy shark populations, and lots of turtles!

jakobΠεριγραφή
Amazing fight of 2 dedicated salamanders, trying to wrestle it out. Completely unbothered by my presence and strong light. After watching this for maybe 10-15 minutes, I gently separated them by 20-30 cm, just to see them going for each other again! I guess they needed the rest of the night to find out who's the winner...
Here's a short film clip:

Φανεροπτερίνες (Υποοικογένεια Phaneropterinae)Παρατηρητής
gbohneΠεριγραφή
This nymph of a bush-cricket, ~2-3cm, looks like a giant ant (mimicry);
however, ants (Hymenoptera) neither have such - long - antennae nor such strong hind-legs (femur)!
The colouration supports the mimicry: the dark colour of antennae is interrupted by a broad white part, hence they seem to be short like the ones of ants. The same happens with the colourful neon-stripes that legs seem thin and the body seems constricted... like a real ant!
