Thank you for watching. Have a good weekend 😀

I will choose Botanic gardens

Hello Lithe. Welcome to Singapore again. Do you mind sharing which part of the world are you flying from? As for your question ... In general, Singapore Botanic Gardens is a good place for birding. With the migrating season now, we can spot more birds too. The garden is big, so we can try our luck from one garden to another. But since they are wildlife...we need to manage our expectations. Weather can also be another factor affecting the birds coming out. My apology I don't think I can answer your question. Lets hope the weather is kind to you when you are here, so you will be able to meet as many birds during your coming trip regardless which garden you visit. Cheers.

@@kimpriority I am from Hong Kong and business trips to Singapore. I made half day off for birding.

Lets hope you are able to meet them soon. Thanks for watching.😊

Really? Hope you will get to meet them soon. Thanks for watching. 😊

@@kimpriority Yeah,thnx, we nicknamed it color-bomb 😀

Thank you for watching and commenting here. Cheers.

Thank you, thank you. Yes. I was so desperate. So I checked all little windows by bending down here and there. Though having a bad backache after this 😄, I am extremely grateful for the sighting. Especially after learning it did not appear the next day. Thank you for watching.😊

@@kimpriority oh wow lucky! I hope it's nothing a simple salonpas/massage can't fix. Get well soon Kim! Will keep watching ur channel :)

Actually I was very disappointed because I only have a chance to watch it nearer to me when the sky turned very dark. I was not able to record a beautiful shot of this beautiful bird. But after learning that it did not appear the next day, I was glad I have at least a few footage to record my wildlife memories. Wildlife is such, we need to treasure every moment of it. Thanks for watching and have a good day. 😊

@@kimpriority Considering the circumstances, I believe you did a great job capturing the bird. The footage you recorded is still a wonderful memory. Have a lovely day as well!👍🙂

Actually no one knows when they will appear and at which place. But when wildlife watchers were out in the park often, someone may spot some special ones and share it to the community via social media. That is when all the crowd come in. Thanks for watching. 😊

@@kimpriority thanks

Thank you for your kind words. It meant a lot to me. Have a good weekend 😀

Its tail was still flapping when it gets to the dry area. I am not sure if it was already dead though.🤔

Thank you for watching.😊

Yes. Especially during the migratory season. LOL. Thanks for watching friend.😉😄

Thanks for sharing Mark.

Which part of the world are you travelling from? (If you don't mind sharing). Wish you luck for good weather and hope you are able to meet many wildlife here. Thanks for watching.

@kimpriority I am from Malta. Small state in Europe. Will appreciate if you send me a 5 day wildlife photography itinerary in Singapore. I will start with Singapore Botanic gardens or Pasir Ris. Should I visit Mandai Bird Park? I really wish to get a shot of The Philippine Eagle there.

@marcuscaruana6772 1. Yes, Singapore Botanic Garden is highly recommended since most migratory bird likes to visit Healing/Fragrant Garden. A good place to meet local birders and asked for good birding places for eg. any interesting birds in which garden at the time of your visit. (Best to avoid Sundays as it will be full of people having picnic there). 2. I have not been to the Bird Paradise in Mandai. So far, 3 birders have shared with me that it is worth visiting even with the price tag. So I guess it is worth visiting. 3. Pasir Ris Park is getting quiet nowadays but I still love this place for the mangrove boardwalk and walking the park with old trees and trying my luck spotting the Spotted Wood & Buffyfish Owl. There are no owls nesting at this moment(not sure about Nov), so it can be challenging spotting them. Well, the very common birds like sunbirds, bulbuls and collared kingfisher can still be spotted there. 4. Jurong Lake Gardens is my another favourite. I usually explore the Southern Promenade, Heron Island, Rasau Walk, Garden House (for the nightjar), walking next to the river all the way to Forest Ramble & Clusia Clove. 5. Bidadari Park is small and very accessible. You may want to visit in the morning, continued to Windsor Nature Park in the afternoon after lunch. 6. Tampines Econ Green is another nice place to visit in the morning. But there is no toilet there, the toilet at Sun Plaza Park is undergoing renovation now. 7. If you like waterbirds, Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve is a good place to visit since it is the migratory season in Nov. 8. The park usually turns quiet between 12pm to 2pm. The best time for us to have lunch LOL. Above are some of my tips, hope it is good for you and most importantly, lets hope the weather is kind to you. Otherwise..... Good luck is what you need LOL.

@kimpriority I think Sungei Buloh is where all the big action is. What about the Quarries? Chances on seeing The Asian Darter during November?

@@marcuscaruana6772 I don't think I can answer this. Share with you this link. Its the Bird Sightings group that I follow. Kind people sharing what they sighted daily. May be a little slow to chase after a bird but still useful for me since I don't chase birds. facebook.com/groups/birdsightings. Perhaps if you join this group, you will be able to find the answers you have before you fly to Singapore. Also, Singapore wildlife community is a friendly one. Do ask around when you meet bird photographers when you are here. I am very sure they are happy to share with you on where is the best happening during the time you visit.

Thank you for watching. 😊

I am sure you will be able to travel there one day. Continue to enjoy your hobby. Thanks for watching. 😊

Thank you for letting me know. Will see what I can do. Thanks for watching 😀

A small neighbourhood park converted from part of an old cemetery popular with migratory birds sighting about 10 years ago before it was closed for re-development. Thanks to the authorities for not cutting down the old trees. We are still able to spot the migratory birds when the park open recently. Nature is so amazing. Don't you think so? 😊

@@kimpriority Agreed, wildlife is always surprising and amazing. In your country, authorities maintain these beautiful places and conserving wildlife is so assuring💗.

Thank you for watching. 😊

Oh, I do not know HK has only 1 sunbird species. Thank you for sharing and watching. 😊

Thank you for watching. 😊

Hi Alan. It was an unplanned trip. England is so big and I can never imagine you are there. LOL. You are so lucky to be staying so near to the nature park. Such a lovely park for birdwatching. Thanks for watching. 😊

Thanks for watching. 😊

Yes. They are pretty common there. I love their eyes. Very bright and beautiful.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching. Cheers.

Thank you for watching and informing me about the Sparrowhawk. I am grateful for your comment. Have a good day. 😊

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for watching and support. Cheers!!!

Thank you for watching. Cheers!

Yes. That's the Asian Koel. Thanks for watching.

Yes. I spotted them when I visited HK last year.

Thanks for sharing and watching.

Thanks for sharing and watching.

Thank you so much for checking in.

Thank you for watching.

I did handheld. I love to walk everywhere, so was not able to carry a tripod or monopod. Too heavy for me. Thank you for watching.😉

Thank you for checking in. Cheers!!!

Thank you for watching.

I did the booking myself. Actually I planned for a simple getaway (since it is so costly to get there LOL). Let me share with you. 1. Hotels and flights, I booked via internet. Musket Cove Island resort includes all meals and tours to the sand bank. They also provide day tours at a fee, but we decided to enjoy the resort facilities and do the day trips when we return to main island where hotel rates are cheaper. We start our holiday from Musket Cove Island Resort - a resort in Malolo Lailai Islands. 2. Return transfer from Airport to Musket Cove Island Resort - I book the return airport transfer to Musket Cove via the resort. They are very nice to help me arrange for my transfer to another hotel in the main Island instead of the airport at an additional fee. Perhaps it would be better for you to check with the hotel for such arrangement before booking with them. 3. To save cost of accommodation, we transfer to a hotel at main Island. We chose somewhere near Nadi Area for easy access to place of interest. We book day tours for Island Hopping or other tours from the tour desk at the hotel we stayed. We know there are cases when people booked day tour via the internet but the tour agent failed to pick them up. So we played safe. 4. After the trip, we think it is better to stay near Denarau Island area at main Island since it is near to the port where we set sail for Island Hopping. 5. Most important of all, check the weather of Fiji before planning to visit. Since we are there for the beach, it is very important to plan on days when the weather is good and water is calm. There are many information via the internet. Above are some infor that I did while planning for my trip to Fiji. Hope it is helpful to you. Thanks for watching. Cheers!!

@@kimpriority thanks so much for your generous sharing! I shall start saving up lol, hopefully it’s not gonna take 20 years 😂

Thanks for watching. If you are a person who loves the sun, sand and water, the island resort are something worth visiting. Just a little too far to travel and costly. 😂

One of the lucky sighting during our last migratory season (Year 23/24). Thanks for watching.

Yes, the Large-tailed nightjar is one of birds I love to challenge myself to spot. Very happy when we can spot them because they are so well camouflage. Thanks for watching friend.
