There were two raptors flying around the Lim Chu Kang chicken coops as if they were looking to make an afternoon meal out of the poultry in the megacoops. The chickens were certainly making a bit of noise from the safety of the sheltered buildings.
The raptors looked like juvenile Brahminy Kites. One of them was fiddling with its legs in midflight as if it had got something stuck and was trying to remove it. Brahminy Kites are well known for eating on the fly which is something they seem to specialise in as compared to other locally found raptors. The tails edge was also a slightly rounded squarish one as compared to the wedge shaped tail of the white-bellied sea eagles.
