A bird eating fanged frog, a gecko that looks like it’s from another planet and a bird which would rather walk than fly, are among the 163 new species discovered in the Greater Mekong region last year that are now at risk of extinction due to climate change, says a new report launched by WWF ahead of UN climate talks in Bangkok.

This is the first in a series of articles relating to the hidden, and sometimes not so hidden, beauty and treasures that can be found in almost any garden in Thailand. For those of you living in Condos, serviced apartments and the like, not fortunate to have a garden, why not take the time to wander around the grounds and gardens below you at different times of the day? You may be rewarded with a glimpse of a beautiful butterfly, an unusual bee, a centipede, a frog, a lizard, a snake, a rodent, a humming bird, or other lovely feathered friend.
