Students from RI waiting anxiously for the arrival of boat to ferry them to Semakau.
This is where we took our boat to Semakau at West Coast Pier.
After the short video presentation by NEA, we go for the landfill tour.
Taking photo at south most of Singapore(Pulau Sudong & Pawai can be seen from the photo)After the landfill tour, we head straight to the shore for the inter-tidal walk. The fiddler crab was the first one waving their enlarged pincer welcome our arrival. Follow by the common sea stars showing us their special sand burrowing skills. More stories about sea stars here.
After the sea grass walk, we spotted the first hairy crab, and a big shrimp too.
Big shrimp
Beautiful Chromodoris Nudibranch
This looks like a beatiful Pebble Crab (Leucosia sp.)
Another shot of the Pebble Crab. This crab is not very common, it's a scavenger.
This poor fish was seen struggle to get free from the net left behind by someone. Photo shown after it was released from the net and with the help of one of the member, she was set free and released to the sea.
Heart shape bivalves
Spider Conch
Cushion Star
Frog Fish
Another view of the frog fish
