Nightmare fuel for sure ![]()
i just saw the WIKI photo from the asian market with scolopendras on sticks…
seriously, who would eat that…
Whaaat how would they taste *
they look fascinating but intimidating, do they move fast? ![]()
- I would never try
They’re pretty quick. And pretty much indestructible. I wouldn’t normally hurt a fly, but did have several smacks at the one that got me in my tent. Got it with my shoe a few times and it just kept doing laps
Keep that tent door closed these days, ocean breeze be damned
me neither… i like most insects but there are a few i really find disgusting and alienating… and on top the poison of many Scolopendra ranges from extremely painful to deadly. But ok, that may not count on an asian market…
where was that?

Hawaii
I was on a small macro photography trip yesterday in our nearby forest.
I even met a beekeeper on his beehive. We talked a little and he kindly gave me a beekeeper hat so I could take some pictures.
Sweet!
Playing with some macro photography yesterday looking for bees, but found a moth hiding among them too.
Kamikiri mushi buzzed my head this morning. Anoplophora glabripennis? Surely it’s pronounced like pennies.
So fascinating! I googled it, they are quite large, wow!
