12 DAYS BIRD WATCHING IN THAILAND
Went to Thailand for a 12 days bird watching trip with Jacky, Henrietta and our Thai friend Jay; a very experience bird guide. He drove us by his parents' 4WD from Bangkok to Chiang Mai to different birding sites. We left the hotels almost everyday before sunrise and call off a day after sunset. It was a tiring but enriching trip. We saw a total of 400 species of birds (Singapore have 392 species) in 12 days!! Here are some of the pictures taken during the trip.

BUTTERFLY SURVEY @ JELUTONG HILL ON THE 13/1/2016
On the 13/1/2016, I volunteered with Nparks for a butterfly survey @ Jelutong Hill. It was a great sunny day. Total butterflies counted were 41 species. I was quite surprised that no sighting of Cycad Blue that seen most of times during the survey and also not slighting of The Common Birdwing this period. Guess this magnificent creature was affected by the haze because of forest fire in Indonesia last year :-(
Here are some of the pictures of these wonderful creatures.
