Jungle trip.

[Alakdan]

Just want to share some pics of our hunting trip last July. This was taken from a rainforest some 4 hours north of the capital city, Manila.

This is the first planned field trip with fellow AB members demonick, tarsier, and Robie.

It was a short trek that took about 3 hours.

From left: demonick, tarsier, and yours truly.

With Robie, searching for more Chaerilus.

With demonick, collecting vinegaroons at the base of trees.

Here's a few snaps of what we got.
Chaerilus sp.

Liocheles waigiensis

Tail-less whipscorp, vinegaroon, and an unidentified centipede.

We're planning another trip by end of August. This time it would be a different rainforest south of Manila.

Saw a lot of huntsman spiders. There were a lot of orb weavers on the power lines along the road.

There were a lot of burrows, but the ground was wet from the heavy downpour. It was difficult to know if the resident spider is in. I tried to catch one 2-3 inch greyleg from a burrow, but my lack of experience helped the spider escape. I will do better next time.
