West Coast Park in November

 The weather at year end is supposed to be cooler and breezier. Compared with earlier months when we were under threat from the haze in Indonesia, November is a lot more pleasant. However, the sun is still reluctant to reduce its power on us. Or perhaps it has always been powerful, only that we have, over the years of polluting the earth and its environment, caused the protective ozone layer to wear thin thus we now feel the full effects of the sun's rays.

The only way to escape from the scorching sun is to walk under the shade of the numerous tall trees in West Coast Park. Today's highlight of my morning walk with a friend was encountering a majestic eagle resting on the branch of one of thee trees. Even though the photos I had managed to take of this magnificent bird were not as sharp as I would like them to be, you can still sense the power exuded by this single creature perched high above the ground amongst the leaves and branches. There were other creatures in the park that came out to enjoy the sunshine as well and I was privileged to have seen them. Also, there were numerous mushrooms and some were as large as a saucer. Enjoy!

See those powerful legs!

Macho.
