The trees around the pond where the white bellied sea eagle fish has been chopped down. Guess I won't be able to get close views of the amazing fishing sights .... :bheart:


A view that is gone forever

The killing machines

The aftermath

#$%@#$

is there anything the govt won't chop down and ruin? ugh!

 

[hiker]

so sad...:cry:

 

[genenemesis]

Seems like the WBSE wont come back...normally birds will not fly back when usual perches are gone..

 

[speedblade]

i guess we have to be careful what we wished for ......... :angry:

i believe the area around the pond is to be developed into a sports centre, with you guessed it, water sports included.
heard about this developement a while back, but i guess the time has come ......

WTH?

They are so relentless in everything.

A corporation, indeed.

:cry:

You should send this to Nparks or the straits times.. let them see how developments are chasing nature away...

 

[Redsun]

its sad that nature has to give way to development

 

[cjtune]

One less green lung for Singapore...

On a technical note, the pics would be better if either black and white or low saturation with gritty high contrast to express sadness.

 

[noob117]

oh no!! so sad... when i was cycling pass i notice that place was flattened too :'(

 

[dingzyangz]

Does it make a difference? Unfortunately nowadays they don't even bother to listen to the ppl anymore. But do what they think is "best" for us. :thumbsd::thumbsd::thumbsd:

Nowadays? Have they ever listened?

But other people will hear about it. Some may not care, but I feel it is useful to bring publicity to situations like this.

 

[jasonlcs]

When presented with the choice of a eagle and a water sports centre,
which one will they choose?

To them, there is only one answer. :dunno:

Listen to us? :think:

i wonder does the government ever care about the bio-diversity in SG?
Looks like there's going to be more recreational centre.

 

[chngpe01]

I know I started this issue but I would suggest we do not get too political over it, speaking as a mod.

Apologies to the Admin for this, as this topic hits a raw nerve in me (though I have given up nature photography for the moment).

damn yeah i usually see it when i was younger i wondered why i never got to see it circling around anymore... anyways nice shot of the eagle.. its quite rare to see it anyways...

 

[dingzyangz]

went there yesterday at around 9am. waited for them to appear. 1 came around 10+ and circled around for a while and flew off. i continued waiting and they can back again at around 12pm. this time round 4 fellas came. same thing... circled a while and left.
