I should really write a little note for each of these, but I have a thesis to write… so, maybe I’ll come back to this post in March? Anyway, here are my best / favourite (not necessarily the same thing) photos that I have taken this year. It’s a bit overloaded, but I suppose that comes with a year of going to Borneo and buying a load of new camera equipment… you can see more fruits of my camera-based labour over on my flickr page as well. Click on the images below to enlarge!

My new pet Phidippus regius jumping spider, named Boadicea. It turns out playing cricket song to my crickets doesn't make them sing. It just makes them do this. Some dancing, mating flies. IMG_7674 Kind of cheating as it was a captive bird, but I like this image... Even jumping spiders are not immune to multimillion dollar marketing. A wasp, fallen victim to a Cordyceps fungus. A female orang utan and baby swing through the trees in Danum Valley, Borneo. Stork-billed kingfisher. Pygmy elephant eats by the Kinabatangan river. A white-bellied sea eagle in flight.

Later, she took this off and consumed it while the sperm package remained attached (the male provides this 'gift' during mating). Silver leaf langur eating. IMG_3737 IMG_3524 A tiny jumping spider found its way onto my arm in Flanders Moss, Stirling. I bought some tiny Creobroter gemmatus nymphs.
