A taxi from the airport to Singapore Botanic Gardens could cost S$20 – 30 depending on traffic, so bring at least S$60 ( Exchange rate calculator ). Taxi v SMRT – The SMRT is the excellent, clean, safe, reliable, cheap transport system of Singapore. Below are details for Paser Ris and Singapore Botanic Gardens.
Our first destination for observing birds in Singapore during our three week visit in March was Pasir Ris Park. It would be a great location to visit if you only had a few hours in Singapore and wanted to go beyond the airport to go bird watching. Camping is permitted in some areas, but only to residents of Singapore.
When we decided to go to see what bird species there were in the undeveloped areas at Changi Business Park we encountered several species of bird that we did not observe anywhere else in Singapore. Another bird species that we did not encounter anywhere else in Singapore was the Green Imperial Pigeon. Barred Buttonquail.
We have just returned from an incredible three weeks in Singapore, where unlike many others who visit the country we spent the whole time in nature parks, forests and gardens observing birds. We travelled to Singapore from Broome overnight on 5th March arriving in the early morning of the 6th March. We had arrived at 09:15am.
If you see 50 cattle egrets following a plough on a rice paddy, less so. I have seen that myself in the Singapore Botanical Garden, though not in Shanghai. While most egrets are not a big draw for experienced birders, they are often the ones that non-birders find the most impressive.
When there are no animals around to sit on, Cattle Egrets sometimes sit on trees, even though they frequently b h about the trees’ low speed and inability to stir up insects. When Cattle Egrets go to the local discotheque, they tend to overdo their makeup a bit. It is sometimes necessary to find food though.
8 beats contributed 70 checklists from 7 countries (UK, USA, Costa Rica, China, Serbia, Australia and Singapore). 102 Cattle Egret – Bubulcus ibis. 102 Cattle Egret – Bubulcus ibis. Costa Rica v UK is bino a bino and UK has never before beaten The Man. Update; as at June 30, UK 68 – Costa Rica 63.
During the breeding season, some Cattle Egrets look like teenage girls who have just discovered the existence of make-up, and consequently massively overdo it. But what do I know about the taste preferences of Cattle Egrets. It is probably all downhill from here. What’s next? Identification of subspecies?
Visited this month were; Germany , France , Austria, South Africa, Hong Kong, USA, UK, Serbia, Costa Rica, Australia, China, Indonesia , Switzerland and Singapore).

The male Asian Koel has a rather distinctive call which for me is almost the sound of Singapore. I guess the hosts (which include the Donald Trump of the bird world, the Long-tailed Shrike) have to be grateful, sort of. Of course, what is shown here (and in the video ) is a female – kind of typical for this blog.
