Berlayar Creek - some animal residents - Jan 2012

 Here are some of the animals seen at the Berlayar Creek mangrove :

 a swimming giant mudskipper

 an orb spider tending to its web

(in the open field adjacent to the mangrove)

what can you see in this pic of the huge tree?
The tree is located on the Keppel Golf Course beside the Berlayar Creek mangrove.
Can you see a large nest?
And what about a bird? Two birds?
See if you can spot the two white-bellied sea eagles!
here is one :

some other animals seen but not digitised :
white egrets/herons (not sure which species)
kingfishers (not sure which species)
There were lots of other small birds pip-pipping and chirp-chirping between the trees.

Another rarely seen animal on the mudflats is the horseshoe crab. See if you can spot if when you visit the mangroves during a low tide day.
