We decided to go to Windsor Nature park, also located in the Central Catchment. Prior to this NYAA experience, I had never known about the central catchment, and did not realise that all of the major reserves were linked via trails and pathways. This was incredibly fascinating to me. We took the Drongo Trail, which features a sub-canopy walk, where we saw many different types of native fauna under the canopy level, in addition to the understorey of the regenerating secondary forest.
We also hiked up to the tree-top walk, which we hoped would provide us the stunning views it promised of Singapore nature landscape. However, it was closed, and we were not able to go past it. Nonetheless, I realised that I enjoyed the hike and observing the ways in which the different flora and fauna interact. Using my HL biology knowledge, I can also see the ways in which plants are adapted to best suit their survival needs, and found this very interesting.
