Darn I've nearly cracked my brains but can't associate this with anything. It's like a bulbul-thrush-pipit-starling-babbler mix. Was this from Singapore, or do you have more photos of it?

Really hope some expert can ID this... I'm extremely curious too.

WOW, this South America Pacific Hornero looks quite close, but this pic was taken in Jurong area, maybe an escapee from the JBP.
