Slipper Orchid
Such is the wealth of landscapes, wildlife and people of Borneo that to summarise them in an evening’s talk is a difficult task. Tony’s solution is to introduce you to a number of native people that he has met in Borneo and to paint them into their local environments.
Being an island straddling the equator Borneo is subject to rain-bearing winds from different directions according to the seasons, a fact that results in a wide range of vegetation and wildlife types not least the orang utan.
The presentation includes an audio-visual sequence.
