White-crested laughingthrush jumps around at Bukit Batok Central
A man saw a white-crested laughingthrush jumping across the ground at Bukit Batok Central.
Stomper Barney spotted the white and brown-coloured bird on April 27 at 3.30pm.
It was perched on top of a concrete platform.
He also shared a video of the bird leaping forward onto the ground.
Barney said: “I have never seen the bird before.
"I think it is a rare sight to see, though I am not an avid bird watcher."
However, according to the Bird Society of Singapore, the white-crested laughingthrush is a common bird found in Bukit Batok Nature Park.
It is described as “gregarious” and “often noisy when in groups".
