Another Hill to Save

Yet again the same story of the "need to develop". It is never a need but a want/ desire. There are many other places if you want to build housing but why should it be at the expense of Mother nature? I would not say no due thought has been given but as always, money speaks the loudest and the greedy will only heed its call.

So, it leaves other communities labeled environmentalist, conservationist and other whatnot-ist to lobby for nature to be preserved. That makes then the "bad guys" but in the end, let us see who shall stand for judgement.

Milo, LH and I went out in search of this place and after a round of discovering Melawati, we finally found the place, thanks to the bright yellow orange tent sent up for the raptor watch. We were too late for the watch but there are always other treasures that nature has in store.

Pretty butterfly at the max zoom of my lens.



This fella just gave me a bum-bum profile. This was the best of the 3 I managed to shoot before it flew off.
