Instead of bringing us back to the boat, our chauffeurs took us along beside the outer shore of the island. The strange overhangs were a good way of keeping out of the sun & heat of the day.
The overhanging greenery also harboured the Brown Winged Kingfisher below. He was patiently on the lookout for lunch but our presence wasn't helping.
After a short paddle we entered another cave & were soon in another hong.
This one wasn't as big but just as nice. It had some interesting rock formations, Monkeys & even Flying Foxes (or Fruit Bats).
The Fruit bats were a noisy clan. They supposedly sleep during the day but they're like a bunch of kids on camp at night, chattering & squabbling. I can't see how they sleep at all.
We left Koh Panak and headed for Koh Hong.
