Red-whiskered bulbul (Pycnonotus jocosus). It's be Red-whiskered bulbul (Pycnonotus jocosus). It's been heaving down with rain for several days now. Last night a plague of flying ants also took to the sky but despite having the mosquito screens already shut a few still managed to teleport themselves in. Most got no further than the balcony where they spent the night milling around, climbing on the plants and wondering what to do next.
.
It was the bulbuls that decided their fate. These birds are common around here but they usually keep their distance. With a banquet of flying ants on the menu though, several came over for breakfast.

I made the epic journey from Pui O to Ping Che the I made the epic journey from Pui O to Ping Che the other day, one remote corner of Hong Kong to another. It involved three separate MTR trains sandwiched between two bus rides to cover a distance of about 75 kilometres and took a bit less than two hours. It was worth the effort for Wan Chuen Sin Koon, a Taoist monastery at Ping Che, is perhaps one of the prettiest in Hong Kong.
.
It belongs to the Chunyang Taoist sect, a branch of the Quanzhen school, which was founded in the mid-nineteenth century on Xiqiao Mountain near Nanhai City, Guangdong. It moved to Hong Kong in 1944 but the current premises have no historical significance. The land was acquired in 1975 and used as a religious retreat but it wasn’t until 2000 that construction got underway in earnest.
.
The monastery buildings are set in spacious grounds with lotus ponds and chrysanthemum gardens, though neither will be in bloom until late Summer or early Autumn when exhibitions of the latter are held. Also in the grounds is a large stele that contains the full text of Laozi's Tao Te Ching.
.
Wan Chuen Sin Koon is also famous for its excellent vegetarian lunches served between 12.00 and 14.00. Portions are generous and tables fill up fast so get there early.

A hefty strand of spider silk stretched across the A hefty strand of spider silk stretched across the footpath slammed into my face as I set off on my walk this morning. A reminder that Summer is just around the corner and that soon the trees in my neck of the woods will be festooned with nephila pelipes or golden orb weavers. Their name comes from the yellow sheen on the webs of mature spiders.
.
They are quite majestic beasts but for those unfamiliar, they are the stuff of nightmares. Fully grown the body is about the size of my thumb with a leg span a little wider than my outstretched hand. The webs are commonly about a metre across, though I have seen some that were easily 1.5 metres, and are spun from some of the strongest silk known. Though they do look very pretty when caught in the sunlight. Multiple spinnerets at the blunt end of the spider mean they are quite capable of making spider rope and they are also able adjust the composition of the silk according to their environment. 
.
These huge spiders are always female. The males are a rusty brown color and little bigger than a fingernail. They hang about on the edges of the web waiting, presumably until she has a meal large enough to hold her attention so that he can dart in, do the business and retreat without becoming a light snack himself. I’ve read that a bite can be quite painful but the venom itself is not considered dangerous. I have no plans to put it to the test.

It was moved to Hồ Tây (West Lake) in 1615, due to erosion on the river bank, and underwent major renovations again in 1815.

The pagoda forms part of the Trấn Quốc Temple which holds the ashes of venerable monks.

The prows of pinisi rear up along the old harbour The prows of pinisi rear up along the old harbour front at Sunda Kelapa in north Jakarta, Indonesia. Pinisi are a type of two-masted schooner built by the Bugis of South Sulawesi. Most of them are motorised now but they are still used to transport cargo around the Indonesian archipelago. In previous times that included bringing timber from the forests of Sulawesi and Borneo to Jakarta and returning with everything from bags of cement to bottled water and anything else that is not readily available on the islands.
.
The art of building Pinisi was recognised by UNESCO as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity in December 7, 2017.

Ruishi Lou towers over the village of Jinjiangli a Ruishi Lou towers over the village of Jinjiangli about 12 kilometres southwest of Chikan town, Kaiping in southern China. The towers, collectively known as diaolou, were built mostly during the late 19th and early 20th century, though there are a few that date back as far as the 16th.
.
The older diaolou were built specifically as watchtowers to guard against invading bandits and to give refuge during floods. The more recent ones still served that function but also served as family homes. These were built by returning emigrants who had made their fortunes in other parts of the world. The designs reflected the newly acquired cosmopolitan tastes of their owners combined with traditional Chinese elements.
.
Ruishi was built in 1926 by Huang Bixiu, a villager who had left and made his fortune in Hong Kong as a merchant. It has nine floors each with it's own living space kitchen and bedrooms.
.
The Jinjiangli village and it's diaolou along with several other clusters in the region were made UNESCO World Heritage sites in 2007

Muk Wu used to be in what was known as the closed area, a stretch of land that was set up in the 1950s, firstly to prevent gun smuggling during the Korean War, but was later expanded to stem the tide of illegal border crossings. Previously only residents and their families were allowed in but the restrictions have since been rolled back so that now only the river banks and border crossing areas are closed.

It’s amazing what a lick of paint can do. I last v It’s amazing what a lick of paint can do. I last visited the charming little Luen Wo Market a little over two years ago. Then the gates were closed and fastened with rusty chains. The building was in a very sorry state indeed. A gentleman wearing a yellow hard hat did assure me that it was about to be renovated so today I went back to take a look. 
.
Inaugurated in 1951, the market thrived for 50 years, finally closing in 2002 when the stalls were moved to a new location.
.
The building looks much happier now. Its structural integrity has been preserved and veggies, organic this time, are for sale along one side while the stalls on the other now have chairs and tables for guests of the Wake Up Bistro - who are, in fact, open all day.
