Back to basics.
I spent Saturday morning birding at Singapore Quarry and along the road leading up to the quarry (Jalan Asas). This was one of the first locations I visited when I began my birding journey in 2023.
The early morning walk along Jalan Asas yielded many of the common resident birds. However, they were all perched high up on some very tall trees which did not make for good photography.
At the quarry, there is a resident pair of Gray-headed Fish Eagles. I only saw one of them and it was perched quite a distance away. It did not attempt any dives in the 1.5 hours I was there.
An Asian Brown Flycatcher stops by the viewing platform for a look around before disappearing into the forest again.
On the way out, I spotted this Tiger Shrike along Jalan Asas. Pleasantly surprised to see this uncommon migrant again as I have not spotted one for some time already.
