Where is my Home town, Sarikei?
Oh, no far away from here, just over the far hills 23km away.
It is located not far from the river mouth, along the longest river of Sarawak, the Batang Rejang, which flows towards the South-China Sea.

Simple but Pretty Unknown Red Flower
I bought this plant at Sarikei Market, US$2. The vender said the plant could produce lot of flowers throughout the year.
The flowers appear familiar to me, similar to the Crown of Thorns. But this plant has no thorn. The stem looks slender.
I did not wish to damage the young plant just to see whether it produced white latex.

Yellow Kissing Bug
I don't think you want to kiss this bug even though it looks like a robotic toy with outstanding yellow and black colour design. The only defective and disharmonious part is the brown oval tail on its back.
This insect feeds on the vertebrate blood and it is looking for a host, just look at its devilish eyes. But it looks different compared to the American type, which is brownish. Worst of all in America, this insect carries Chagas disease, a type of disease which Charles Darwin was suspected to be infected when he was in South America!

Flying Seed
It dropped on the ground right in front of me, brought by the wind. Soon the hairs will be gone and new plant emerges. This is how some plants spread their genes to very far place, rather than drop right below the mother tree and compete with each other. It can also float on the water and be transported even further away

Brown Pansy Butterfly
Wei, what are doing inside my car?
I just parked the car in the farm and opened the door , this butterfly could not wait and flew into my car.
Well, it is the butterfly season, I saw many butterflies flying around, various colours and varieties.
I did not know where they hid during raining, but they immediately appeared when the rain stopped!
