Wow, i didn't know these guys enjoy chewing Betel Nut, or Nga-nga, as the locals call the fruits of this Palm tree.. Great work Renoir! thanks for sharing! Hmmm, could the Red stripes on their chest be actual stains and smears from chewing nga-nga?

hi Neon Rosell II and edu' yes its a palm but this type is "native" here, name "palmera".
i have collected some seeds this morning and will have it air dried. will let you know if its ready for "export"
hi romy and mark' the "gang" of three here actually is taking advantage of the "palmera" when the eagerly jealous YVB is away.
