One can learn a lot from a person's photos...for example that you prefer working on the floor, and using pen and paper...old-school!

Re: Scorpions of Southern Africa - Leeming
Scorpions are very interesting and there are so many species that it must be quite a job to read about them all
I like the pic on the front page

Notepad....my Mrs was doing some work and had some of her notes on the table, so I used a blank page as a background

Every night search for Scorpions.
So far (of the regular camps that I visit), Lower Sabie is the best place to see them
