Leeches

Well, is always good to head outdoor into the forest for bird watching, photography or simply enjoy the calm & peaceful environment.

However, sometimes it can be quite a gory experience when you have multiple leeches feeding on your blood. The wounds left by leeches can bleed from few hours to even days. This was due to the anticoagulant hirudin in the leeches' saliva.

Here's the very beautiful leech that I capture with my camera... they are very beautiful, don't you agree?
