Fort Canning Green

Perched high above the sloping fields of Fort Canning Green is a family of nesting White Bellied Sea Eagles. Within sight (just barely) of all the exercise enthusiasts below, the parents can be seen flying in and out.

But you can try your luck to spot the birds. Just bring a pair of binoculars.

Then walk all the way to the promontory as shown in the map above. The minute you are there, you will spot the Little Terns flowing all around. Do note that as of this blog post (1st August 2020) it is nesting season and the open field in the mid...
