Dark, slow, and quieter than you think
You meet at a public area, walk a known path, and use lights in short bursts. Frogs, moths, geckos, and night birds are the usual possibilities — never a promise.
If a walk is sold as a guaranteed civet, owl, or snake, treat that as a warning, not a feature.
What to bring
Closed shoes, a spare light, and clothes you can stand still in. Leave the idea that you will leave with a trophy photo.
