Mui Wo's most unusual pets

Spotted these being taken for a walk today. They're four years old and simply adorable. Smartphones were out as these guys waddled (surprisingly fast) towards their meal.

Clams by the bushel

The first sunny day in the week and the clam diggers are out in full force in the beach.


I've always been curious as to what they're digging up. This one seems to grab anything, even barnacles.


But this person seems more selective.

Secret beach

I know it isn't peak tourist season yet but the Silvermine Bay beach is beginning to fill up already. So we decided to take a walk to the quiet "secret" beach along the road to Man Kok Tsui.
It takes a bit of walking to get there but it is so worth it. Even when the main beach is crowded, there are hardly more than two or three couples here.

I wanted to live in this building – until Buffalo Wilbur pointed out that it probably used to be a pig sty.



The beach is surprisingly clean, considering there are no armies of cleaners sweeping it every morning.




Can anyone tell me what fruit this is and whether it's edible?
