When trees and bushes are gone ....

 I guess when taman workers are not properly trained to maintain a park, ie when it involves cutting or trimming, they tend to get over-zealous and this was what happened when the workers decided to clean up the river sides.  The slopes have been 'wiped clean' that on the bright side, it's easier to see the birds but on the reverse, birds can see humans easily too, so in the end, the birds fled, spooked by people curiously and constantly scanning the river banks.  Ahh well, one just has to wait for the plants and shrubs and bushes to grow back.

CMCO Day 12 & 13

This slope was once the attraction of the Munias and Weavers and Butterflies when it was overgrown with wild grass and flowering bushes.

 

It was just good old yesterday that the Scaly-breasted Munias were feeding on the grass seeds.
