We started our Singapore bird list at Pasir Ris and leaving the train station we were delighted to see several Cattle Egrets on the grass and several photographers. On one occasion we saw a pair of Red Turtle Doves beside the fishing lake. We were able to observe birds nesting as well as a variety of age groups among the trees.

Of herons and egrets I only saw two species.
