Celebrating Singapore’s 61st Birthday in Nature
This National Day, Cicada Tree Eco-Place celebrated with our annual nature walk, this year at Rail Corridor — slowing down, looking closer and appreciating the wild Singapore around us.
We were delighted to spot four Blue-crowned Hanging Parrots feeding on powderpuff flowers, a flock of juvenile Asian Glossy Starlings, a Yellow-vented Bulbul, catfish, and many beautiful flowers and other flora and fauna. We were even serenaded by a cicada looking for love — turn up the sound and listen!
A heartfelt thank you to our volunteer guides Tan Hang Chong, Lifang and Dr Vilma D’Rozario, and to everyone who joined us.
Singapore’s natural heritage is part of our national heritage too. Let’s continue to notice it, appreciate it and care for it.
See you again at our National Day Walk next year!
