A lot of the photos on our website focus on scenery. In this collection of photos you'll see some of the plants, animals, and insects we spotted out and about in September 2010.

This friendly farmer dipped into his basket and gave us a handful of crab-apples to try out - not sure where he got his Pizza Hut bag from!
According to Huijie's flower book, these are Orostachys Malacophyllus flowers. We saw them growing in the rocks at Longyunshan.
