March 15 2014 - Sat Bukit TImah - aporosa benthamiana


Aporosa benthamiana ( Crescent tree)
Zoomed in view near summit of Bukit Timah

Pleasant surprise to notice these clusters of flowers.

Male catkins zoomed in view.

I was having a break on the steps up Seraya loop and notice this fellow looking for bark flaks to build nest
Found the flaking bark for nest. 
Unknown berries grew from another plant
Latex from trunk of another tree
Another view
You need to look hard to find the yellow male catkins high up in the branches .
Baccaurea paviflora (wild rambai)



P/s. The next day Sunday March 16 the rain came finally... it was still dry on March 15. The since Jan drought period is over. Thanks J Lai for ID the crescent tree.
