Storky Day at Sungei Buloh

The Milky storks found in Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserves are actually free ranging birds from both the Zoo and Bird Park. Why do they fly to Sungei Buloh? I guess its to feed, this shows that Sungei Buloh does have a rich mudflat full of organism in the mud.

They seems to get along well with the great egret (above) too. The Great Egret Egretta alba is a migrant with wing span of up to 215cm. This is also the largest egret found in Singapore. 

It's been a while since I saw the purple heron Ardea purpurea. 


And a flock of Whimbral  flew past!

What a nice day at Sungei Buloh!
