Exams are coming! For a change from all the studying, my parents and I decided to take a drive to Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve for a walk. We heard that this was one of the last few places in Singapore where you could see shorebirds without trekking through swamps and forests.
Some of the birds we spotted were..
Cattle Egret
Little Egret
Little Heron
Grey Heron
Egrets in flight formation
Marsh Sandpiper
White Breasted Waterhen (walking around everywhere!)
There were lots of pretty Kingfishers who posed for pics, called out loudly and fished for us to see..
Collared Kingfisher
White-throated Kingfisher
Storkbilled Kingfisher
And birds up on the trees..
Olive-backed Sunbird
Eastern Broadbilled Dollarbird
Pink necked green pigeon
Rufous tailed Tailorbird
There were cute little Pacific Swallows flying everywhere! We were lucky to catch them taking a break..
It was still not enough for us, so Dad drove us around Kranji to look for more birds.
And I was rewarded with my all-time fav....raptors up in the air on display!!
Black-winged kite hovering in the air (cool!)
Brahminy kite (what a beaut!)
Baya Weaver Birds' Nest
