The Lost Land of the Volcano - BBC1 9.00pm Tuesday
Discussion
Did anyone see the grand finale of this series on Tuesday night! Awesome!
Here's some of my piccies of birdies I took in PNG:
A couple of cuscus I "rescued" at a market up in the Southern Highlands. I bought them, and took them down the track into the rainforest and let them go. If I hadn't they would have been eaten, and they were too cute to let that happen. I suspect they would have been caught a few days later but it made me feel happy at the time!
Rabaul Harbour, where the volcano in the last eposide was filmed.
Megapode nests
Megapode eggs. We boiled a few in a hot spring and ate them. They're disgusting, really rich and sickly, but the locals like them. I imagine with 20 pints of milk one of them may just make a nice scrambled egg on toast!

I saw it, the crater of Mount Bosavi was like something out of a Jules Verne Lost word story and the helicopter ride in like the approach at the beginning of Jurassic Park.
And their new discovery, the Bosavi Woolly Rat, the largest true rat in the world.
When George of the jungle was dropped off on the crater lip and set up the moth net and light bulb for that night I was amazed at how many he had there, all over the place and him, and every one seemed to be different.

Nice pics, what an awesome place to visit. And good job with the cus cus rescue, I think i'd struggle to visit any 3rd world market place where bush meat was being sold.Here's some of my piccies of birdies I took in PNG:

I was pleased when in the 2nd episode George McGavin held up a stink insect exactely the same as the ones I keep downstairs and exclaimed that it was "a monster"
Great series and the location for the last episode was stunning. The moth sequence showing the sheer diversity and number that could be found there was brilliant.
