'Huat ah!': Stompers thrilled by hornbills visiting their homes in Geylang and Toa Payoh
Two lucky Stompers in Geylang and Toa Payoh had hornbills drop by their homes recently.
Stomper Rajan shared photos of a lone hornbill on his condo balcony at Imperial Heights on Aug 7.
The sighting left him "very happy" as it was his first time spotting the bird.
Rajan said: "I felt overexcited and in awe as it's a rare species of bird. We definitely do not get to see this every day, if at all."
Stomper Helen had a similarly delightful encounter on the morning of Aug 5.
"The first time hornbills came to my estate was two years ago," recounted the Toa Payoh resident.
She shared a video from that time, showing a pair of hornbills along her corridor. One can be seen pecking at her potted plant's fruit.
"This time, I saw them again on my kitchen laundry rack," Helen added. "Huat ah!"
