    some crow and probably a peacock royal

    That's a female Striped Blue Crow (the 'some crow' shot).

    Also looks like the Red Jungle Fowl is no longer a rare species in Singapore. Can be found in many places now. Used to be only on Ubin. The distinctive white ear patch is an ID characteristic.

    Happy Birthday, Brian!

    A few of us were there today and met Grant and his gang. Heard your dad took you to Bt Timah today? Anything interesting?

    Nice shots, Brian. It is always fun to find a flowering tree that is attractive to butterflies.

    To get to the other side?!

    What's the full name of that PRP plant? I think I need one for my garden if I see the amount of different butts it attracts!
