Birding at Dairy Farm Nature Park

Next to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, not surprisingly that we will see a rich biodiversity here in Dairy Farm Nature Park (DFNP) in terms of flora and fauna.
Big boulder can be seen along the trail in DFNP,
This park seem to be kept more rustic than the trails popular to joggers at Center Catchment area.
This electrical room have been 're-claim" by nature with fig tree grow on top of it.
This place no longer function as dairy farm, no real cow here except a sculpture to tell the story.
The squirrels here are more skittish than those we saw in the garden. May be due to the presence of their natural predator here. 
Is the period of migratory birds, Asian Brown flycatcher is more commonly seen compare to other flycatchers.
Very similar to the appearance and size with Asian Brown flycatcher, except this Dark Sided flycatcher with dark streak on breast. 
Unlike the more common Yellow vented bulbul, this Olive wing bulbul found only in the forest,
A more uncommon flycatcher that stop over in DFNP - Green Backed flycatcher.
Grey nightjar is another migratory bird that I saw. 
Greater Racket-Tailed Drongo is known to mimic calls of other birds.
A very skittish Red-Legged Crake
With the arrival of troops of Long tail macaque,  is time for me to go for lunch as well... ;)
