What a great trip report and pix. That beetle was beautiful! Did you ever get to see a pennie-Wallie? I have a picture of one and another strange Jamaican bug that I'll post if I can find them.

Respect,
Andy

REALLY great report....such attention to detail & after 2 month!...you guys are GOOD!! I think that bug Marcus found is beautiful, with all that irridescent glimmer....it almost looks like a piece of jewelry! The pics are breathtaking and the report is wonderful! Thanks!

LOVE IT! Both of your perspectives are so refreshing--and I love how you both have your own reactions to the glorious glowing dead beetle! Marcus, you are both hilarious and so informative with your views of the wildlife--you would make a great instructor. Hopefully next trip you both can venture to mayfield falls, or one of the many nature preserves to admire and photograph even more wildlife. Taking the time to marvel at nature is such a treasure.

Thanks for your kind feedback! I know it's taking forever for us to finish this thing, it's nice to know a few peeps are still reading our ramblings. We're at the final stretch now though.

"Glorious glowing dead beetle" - lol - Markus is going to love that! I agree that it had a really nice irredescent glimmer to it but I'm afraid of insects. The size was what freaked me out the most...

...and even though it had "passed on" one of it's back legs still twitched. When I saw that I screamed and ran into the bathroom.


IW - We were thinking about visiting Mayfield falls on our next trip! It really depends on our budget though. Have you been there? If so, What was the experience like and do you remember how much it cost?

Does anyone know of a good nature preserve area directly in Negril, or very close?
