Walk In Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve

We have been planning to go to Sungei Buloh for a long time, but it is only recently that me and my friends had found time to go together.

Striped Nosed Halfbeaks swimming in Sungei Buloh Besar. Besides Halfbeaks, we also saw Banded Archerfish

Very beautiful ladybug


Shellfish on a tree

There were many Malayan Water Monitor in Sungei Buloh

Dragonfly caught in a spiders web

Juvenile Wasp emerging out from its nest

Jumping Spider on a railing

Another Assassin Bug

Beautiful View of Kranji reservoir

On the whole, the trip wasn't too pleasing for us as there wasn't many wildlife that we spotted. I definitely would like to visit Sungei Buloh to try and spot Otters and Crocodiles.

Stroll In Bukit Timah Nature Reserve

Its been a long time since we visited Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, so me and Kenjie took time off in the morning to explore it again!

A very beautiful caterpillar.... Shot taken by a Macro lens

This spider was hiding under a leaf

An beetle that was well camouflaged among the leaf litter, most probably a weevil


Under a fallen tree, a colony of Orb-Weaver Spider resides
A exoskeleton of a Cicada after it has molted

While walking down the black concrete, Kenjie looked up and spotted a St-Andrews Orb Weaver Spider

An cricket chirps at me as I took this picture. Its amazing how loud a small cricket can produce such a loud sound.

Whenever I attach Kenjie's Marco lens onto a camera, I always that I enter a whole new world, an world rich in detail.
