In addition to the shots posted in the Songkran thread, here's a few more photos of Isara's denizens.
First, one of the many lil' barking geckos:
For those of you who haven't made it over here yet, these cute little dudes are everywhere. And they bark! Then, there are their big brothers, who make even stranger noises: The Tokey (or to-geh, as the Thais call them):
This one tends to hand out behind the large classroom at the rear of the ILC, enjoying the bug smorgasbord that occurs when the lights are on at night. In fact, as I was posting this, I saw him (or her?) scurry across the window glass in pursuit of dinner.
And finally, there is a big momma fish in the Isara pond -- she's about two feet long -- and she can be seen cruising among the shallows, keeping an eye on her brood that must number several hundred or so wee-tiny little fish, as one can see here:
Oh, almost forgot: Isara's deck over the pond is also home to the oddest looking spider:
That one above is from the recent English camp with the Bromely Sisters coordinating the Isara Olympics!
Below is Mali, who was passing through on her way to Laos, who went along with us to Sarnelli House:
You can see a few more over at my Flickr page (link below) with more photos from Sarnelli House, as well. I've got more photos of some residents of the Isara pond to come, and of course Song Kran is this week -- I'll try and get some photos of the watery fun (without getting my DSLR wet, of course).
