[Photos] Bugs of Vietnam

New Zealander, Richard Seaman, is a travel addict who crisscrosses the globe with his camera in tow, taking pictures and writing about the bugs he comes across on his blog, the Flying Kiwi. 

He recently traveled to Vietnam and visited a number of national parks where he came across a treasure trove of bees, mantises, scorpions, and beetles.
