November 5 - Got my 320th Singapore bird in a juvenile Grey-headed Lapwing at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve. Fantastic!
November 7 - Bidadari is once again receiving its fair share of migratory birds. Hordes of photographers and a few birders (birders are losing out, sad!) are trampling the former graveyard in search of their favourite birds. Went with Ju Lin and Ping Ling and we had at least 3 Brown-chested Jungle Flycatchers, a Dark-sided Flycatcher, 2 to 3 female Yellow-rumped Flycatchers and 4 Asian Brown Flycatchers. Also seen was a single male juvenile Jambu Fruit Dove sitting quietly high up in a tree, unknown to shutterbugs. A Ruddy Kingfisher greeted our arrival when it flew past us and perched. 2 Indian Cuckoos were also seen separately. Tiger Shrike was also seen. Raptors included 2 Black Bazas and a soaring Oriental Honey Buzzard.
November 11 - Lorong Halus Ditch had 2 winter plumaged Pond-herons, 2 Common Sandpipers, a single Pacific Golden Plover, also singles of Yellow Bittern, Grey Heron and Little Egret.
