Spent the last two nights in Singapore en route to Perth, Western Australia. Yesterday we spent the day at the Singapore Botanical Gardens, Ebird list HERE and today we spent the day at the Gardens by the Bay, Ebird list HERE. As it was a family city break the birding was casual around family activities and both of these sites are top sites in the city to combine both.
A few photo highlights below.
