Found a number of Crows puddling on the cement bench at a rest stop in the nature reserve. Managed to get decent shots of three of them.
The first one (pic 1) is obviously a male Magpie Crow, but the 2nd (pics 2 and 3) and 3rd (pic 4) are tentatively identified as Blue Spotted Crow, but I am not 100% sure. :thinking:

Pic 1: Magpie Crow

In Singapore the numbers (5) & shapes of the FW apical spots are constant enough to ID them as Euploea crameri bremeri.

To the north the underside of half a dozen species are bewilderingly similar.

TL Seow:Cheers.

Thanks, Dr Seow for the ID. :)
It is the first time I encounter Euploea crameri bremeri at this site.
