Aug 19, Kranji, Singapore
I visited several places in Kranji today including Sungei Buloh, however all new year birds came in the grassland/farming areas of the Kranji countryside. The surprise for me was a colony of the introduced Golden-backed Weaver's with nests in several trees - I wasn't aware they were in this area with the stronghold around Lorong Halus.
535. Golden-backed Weaver
536. Streaked Weaver
537. White-headed Munia

Whilst reasonably expectant of the Scops Owl very surprised to get the Frogmouth at the first attempt. A speculative playing of the call had a frogmouth fly and perch less than 5m away at head height - after about 30 sec it flew off not to be seen again.
560. Red-headed Flameback
561. Blue-naped Parrot
562. Palawan Scops Owl
563. Palawan Frogmouth
