View into a scope. Lesser coucal spreading its wings, and sunbathing in the waterlogged fern area. The bird looks much clearer & closer when viewing directly into the scope (photo Cuifen)

Can you spot the baby monitor lizard? (photo Cuifen)
A starburst orchid. A rare sight! Photo taken by fellow bird watcher, Leng Leng.
With the Hungry Ghost festival on, maybe some pickings for the birds, after the “ghosts” have feasted of course (photo Cuifen)
Mornings are family strolls with the dog as well (photo Cuifen)
