Visits
- 2016-02-23: Riding the MRT to the end of the line, I ended up in some mangroves with a boardwalk. There were many people cleaning up. After I had enough of the outdoors, I went to the mall where I learned that "Birds of Wallacea" was available in a Singapore Library. I was able to photograph all the illustrations in this out of print book for the upcoming trip to Indonesia!
- 2023-03-15: There were some reports about owls in the park, so we took the free shuttle from our hotel. There were no owls today, unfortunately though we did get a nice show from an otter in the river.
