Sengkang Riverside Park, Punggol Promenade 14Dec19

From KH

I went to Sengkang Riverside Park.

Firstly, at the northern end, a Purple Heron was pretending to be a darter.

Then, at Sengkang Floating Wetland, an over-confiding Yellow Bittern was busy preening away, not paying too much attention to me.

While this male Olive-backed Sunbird showed me how he balanced effortlessly on one leg.
