Kinabatangan River, Nature Lodge Kinabatangan - day 2 jungle walk

Bird's nest ferns (Asplenium nidus)

The fern's leaves trap a "nest" of leaf litter which then decays enabling them to absorb the nutrients. The larger ferns can weigh up to 200kg.

We enjoyed our midday jungle walk, the jungle simmered and ticked around us in the seething heat, biding time for the cool of the evening.

Lantern fly

Millipede

Giant pill millipedes don't release defensive, foul smelling fluids instead they roll themselves into these darling armoured balls.
