Date/Time : 12.2.12, 8-9 am was a cloudy morning the sun came out later.
Pictures as describing :
The white (here is light purple flowering) weed still in abundance along this initial stretch

Hillview end
More towards the left :

Twds Diary farm
Further along the white flowers of this creeper were doting the corridor

Thunbergia fragrans flowering
As were these familiar flowers then seen :

2126064 Ipomoea triloba
Met this fella said he was trying to catch the Peaceful dove, I mentioned to be careful not to trap illegally, especially the endangered species in order to 'protect the interests of the public'. Said he wasnt aware and said he doesnt go for exotic species. Made my point and left.

Merbok trapper
Just about approaching Gombak Drive, came across an abundance of the Mile a Minute creeper..but no butterflies in sight, unlike before, maybe too early. Missing were the Tawny Costers, Plain Tigers and Stripped Albatrosses. Saw Rings, and Bush browns along the grasses.

Mikania in flower
Just before approaching Gombak Drive railway sentry...railway creepers

Ipomoea mauritiana
...and at the sentry area, the same area saw this fella similarly spotted 7 months back, few generations later perhaps

Forest hopper
Going past Gombak Drive this section toward Chua Chu Kang Road, Bt Panjang estate in the background :

Gombak Drive

Twd CCK
Occasional shrubs appear in the middle of the corridor

Mimosa like shrub
A pair of Black naped oriole few across upwards to tall trees on the right, followed later by a surprise discovery on some plantation, I couldnt understand initially why behind some flatted factory areas.

Cockscomb plantation
'Twas a Cockscomb and some melon creeper being grown on a large plot off side to the right of the corridor

Melon creeper

Celosia argentea var. cristata

Cockscomb
Strangely a large patch of Pearl grass being grown further along the corridor, right left and centre covering the entire section of the corridor for a good stretch, encroaching the Indian temple almost to Chua Chu Kang Rd sentry.

Pearl Grass
The temple must be growing the grass to feed the chickens


Behind the Indian temple
I finally discover its being planted as an extension to Prince's Nursery (did they buy the land ?)

More Pearl grass growing
Further along more creepers, must be placed by the nursery :

Hydrocotyle umbellata, Water or Marsh Pennywort
Almost the end, the tall grasses returned on both sides but the corridor still planted with Pearl grass, reverting somewhat back to the wild state just before the overgrown area around the KTM disused sentry.
A large flock of Munias flew around the grasses left to right and back

Flock of munias

Chested and Scaly breasted munia
I reach my end point, satisfied most of the way despite lack of more butterfly sighting, except for the trapper and flower plantation in question :

Towards CCK Rd
