We had a nice weather today. By 7.45 am, all came and we proceeded with our shooting. There were not many interesting subjects at both sides of the bushes near the entrance of Venus Drive. We went a little in and spent quite sometimes at the small stream. Mating dragonflies, dragonfly with prey and some colourful damselflies were spotted but most were quite sensitive to us. The popular Green Crested Lizard was also seen but it was quite high up in the branches to shoot. Other interesting subjects include baby spiders, molting hoppers, wasp and interesting leaf (see right picture protographyed by Peter Low). At 9.30 am, it was getting quite hot near the stream and so we proceeded further into the forest. Over here, subjects spotted include 2 different forest mating damselfies, butterflies, 2 different robberfly species (one with prey) tiger beetles (blue & green species), "mantis fly", etc.
We stopped at about 12 pm and went to the nearby hawker centre along Thomson Road for lunch.
