See what I just found in my friend Rambo Lai's blog, what he titles as his First Summer Visitors.

Can anyone identify some of these pretty bugs? Some of them are nocturnal, it seems.

HAWK MOTH

Many people swear to me that they saw Hummingbirds on Lamma. Unless there is one escape from the cage of a pet owner, most of the people mistaken the Hawk Moth as Hummingbird.

One of our two common species of centipedes, the much larger (10 inches or so, including the very uneven legs) but generally less aggressive and less toxic species than the black/yellow ones. It was crawling up a Village House's tiled wall last night, stopping nicely for my macro close-up shots from my backup pocket snapshooter. I carry it with me everywhere, unlike my big bulky, heavy, high-quality dSLR for scheduled photo shoots.

So that's how these critters get into bath rooms, up the wall and through the exhaust fan. I've got one of these, about the same size, dropping on my naked shoulder a few years back when grabbing my towel after a shower. No sting, fortunately, but quite an unwelcome surprise!

I saw one of these eating a very large cricket near Power Station Beach one night. Seemed fairly ferocious, but I too have heard that they are less likely to nip a person. Has anyone ever been bitten by one?

Well, from personal experience, I've only ever been bitten by one of those nasty, black/yellow baby centipedes while I was sitting outside Green Cottage. It was biting my foot through a sock without any provocation, when I wasn't even moving my foot at the time.

But I've never bitten by one of these much larger ones, even when "provoking" it by seriously disturbing its hiding place, my bathtoom towel. But both of these species are carnivores, ferocious to live prey, widespread and common in the warmer parts of the world.

This photo would actually look good on the right side of the home page, as Wildlife Photo of the Day, crawling up the home page? It might spook some of the many visitors checking out Lamma.com.hk before making their rare day trips here. Maybe with a little word balloon added to it, "Welcome to Lamma!"

By the way, what's the full name for these two centipede species again?

It's crawling up the right side of the home page right now.
I hope it's not scaring away too many tourists? :roll:
