Scorpion and Spider course

We are on a scorpion and spider course at the moment and went looking for spiders yesterday afternoon and went looking for scorpions last night. I saw some other things while walking which are awesome which i'm going to show also even thought they aren't scorpions or spiders.

On our walk we found some awesome things like this amazing butterfly.
A Garden Acraea.

After walking around a noticed loads of these frogs which were awesome. They have a bright green line along their back which sticks out. Had to work to get a photo cause the frogs wouldn't sit still but got it in the end.
Its was a Juvenile African Bullfrog.
An awesome frog.

Last night we went out into the forest to go look for scorpions. We found this AMAZING scorpion. Was awesome.
This is a Opistacanthus Asper.
The scorpion under a UV light. Their bodies glow under the UV light because of their exoskeleton. It really something special and amazing to see. If you have an opportunity to do it you must cause its really awesome.
  This is the dorsal view of the Opistacanthus Asper. An awesome scorpion.

We were looking in the trees for some scorpions and as I looked up there was this butterfly right in front of my face. It blew my mind as soon as i saw it. It really is amazing.
 This is a Friar. A really amazing butterfly. It was a great end to a great night.

Till next time
