Veteran birder Willie Foo leads this walk. This area is located behind Tampines Industrial area, along Tampines Ave 10. There was once a “Grebe Pond” here with the highest count of 12 grebes. Alas, it has since given way to development. Visit this wooded area before it is completely gone. We will look out for Sooty-headed Bulbuls, Red-Whiskered Bulbuls, Black-shouldered Kites, Pied Trillers, Pied Fantails and bee-eaters that call this place home. If we are lucky, we can watch mix flocks of munias (Black-headed, White-headed and Scaly-breasted) feeding together! Formerly this road was known to drivers as “Old Tampines Road”.
Time: 7.30am
Venue: Meet Willie Foo at the junction of Tampines Road and Jalan Sam Kongsi.
