From KH

Department retreat at Sungei Buloh. Who says hobby and work can't go together?!

The star of the day was a 1-m-long Estuarine Crocodile.

Its relative, the Malayan Water Monitor, is much more common and often mistaken for it. This one owned the raft!

The other reptiles found here include the Mangrove Pit Viper (left) and the Painted Bronzeback (right).

The star bird today was a lone Great Knot, seen here with a Whimbrel in the foreground and Common Greenshanks to the right.

The other uncommon wader today was a Terek Sandpiper (smaller and with upturned bill), surrounded by Common Greenshanks and Common Redshanks.

A Giant Mudskipper and a Violet Vinegar Crab were enjoying time together. What an odd couple!
