Regular
nature activities
Here are some nature
events and activities that held weekly or monthly. Just because they
are regularly held doesn't mean they are boring the second time around.
Wild places have seasonal changes that make every visit fresh and
exciting! New animals are encountered, different plants are flowering.
Visits earlier in the day are also different from visits in the evening.
Those who regularly re-visit are often rewarded with special sights
and insights into the full splendour of our nature places.
To view these activities by location
Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve Buloh is more than birds. Guided
walks introduce you to the strange mangrove trees that stand
on stilts, crabs that climb trees, and fish that frolick out
of the water. Equally fascinating plants and animals inhabit
the freshwater wetlands. If you are lucky, you might spot the
family of otters that live at the Reserve, or the crocodile!
