18th February 2017 Saigon

Shortly after dawn we walked to a remnant area of wet grassland that unfortunately was in the process of being bulldozed to make way for fishponds. Activity was good at first but it soon quietened as the temperatures inevitably rose. Spent the rest of the day with Lusi and Laine.
