Black Bittern (Ixobrychus flavicollis) Tampines, 9th January 2018
This Black Bittern had died so recently that the body was still warm to the touch, and the blood was still bright red and had yet to coagulate. It is possible that it died after flying into a nearby building. The carcass was passed to David Tan, as part of his research on bird mortality in Singapore.

The bird of the day is Black bittern from tropical Asia and Australia!
Fun fact:Before striking, these birdies are known to perform a "neck sway," rocking their heads back and forth to either unsettle hidden prey or limber up their neck muscles, isn't it cool?
