Made a trip up the Belait River recently. One of the highlight was to see this sleepy crocodile who seemed to be enjoying the limelight of being photographed and talked about. The sight of this creature not too far from human dwellings was a gentle reminder that we are living very close to wild animal habitats. And so due respect and precaution need to be taken especially when one is going up and about on the river. In recent times there have been a number of fatal attacks by these creatures, but then this is their home and hunting ground.
The trip up the river was amazing. The sight of endless mangrove trees lining the river bank, singing birds passing by and watching slowly moving murky water of Belait river make this place tranquil and a very relaxing place. The year 2010 is a year to remember for many of us. There are so many happenings, a good share of ups and downs. Just as we are having fun, the new year beckons. Wonder what 2011 awaits us.
