Merlion Wayfarer was at Singapore Botanic Gardens today. Instead of the usual "crowd-infested" paths, she decided to go for the swath of untouched 6-hectare rainforest. The path there is not easily visible from the main walkways. Instead, one must either climb up a flight of wooden stairs or disappear into a meadnering little path to find it.
Entwined vines in the middle of Orchard Road...
Here are some of the interesting sights spotted today...
Orthetrum Sabina (Variegated Green Skimmer) resting on a stalk of grass with a moult just below it...
An abundance of Aethriamanta Gracilis (Pond Adjutant) dragonflies around Symphony Lake...
Two very photogenic bugs pose for a shot...
An ant with a shiny body like polished metal...
An ant which can carry a big furball under its belly...
And ants which have symobiotic relationships with friends...
A bench to commemorate a family member who made a big contribution to their lives...
Tourists, foreign workers and friends, all having fun here in the bright morning sunshine...
