I don&#8217;t know why we did not made it there earlier &#8230; maybe because I considered it too far?! (I mean not really far, but as far as it gets within this tiny place called Singapore ;).)<\/p>\n<p>We coordinated our timing to reach at low tide which allowed us to\u00a0walk the numerous trails and boardwalks, to discover the mangrove forests and\u00a0get close\u00a0to the life in the muddy waters.<\/p>\n<p>The Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is Singapore&#8217;s first ASEAN Heritage Park and has been labelled as a nature park since 1993. It is an ecological jewel and home (or temporary home) to many animals.<\/p>\n<p>Migratory birds come from as far north as Russia and make it their home from September to March.\u00a0Native animals such as mudskippers, crabs, mud worms, monitor lizards, birds or dragonflies can\u00a0be seen year round. We heard that it is also the habitat of some estuarine (saltwater) crocodiles but were not lucky enough to spot one.
