Comoros Day 1

I’ve got some time at the airport in Lilongwe with good connectivity and power, so let me show you a little more from Malawi in case conditions are not so good when we arrive in Comoros.

For a break from all the birds, here’s a vervet monkey from my visit to the Lilongwe Wildlife Centre yesterday. It was one of a large troupe monkeying around along the Namanthanga River.

Here’s a brown-veined white butterfly (Belenois aurota) from along the highway outside the wildlife centre

And were are a couple of African striped skinks (Trachylepis striata), warming up in the morning sun on the wall around Jelia Park, where we stayed for a few days in Dowa for Anne’s research.

One thought on “Comoros Day 1

  1. Skinks! When we lived in Southern Maryland, we had skinks living under our deck. If you grab them by the tail, it comes off. The skink will regrow the tail. No, I haven’t tried it. In other news the eagle has a chick.
