Nature and Graves

Hornbills! Finally getting better a nature-watching.
Well hello there, Changeable Lizard, you have a boring name, but fun feet!
Spot the wild bananas.
One of my favourite Singaporean parks is Bukit Brown cemetery.
It's a bit overgrown.
But the graves, from the 1800s to the 1950s, are glorious!
Different styles of guards provide protection.
Guards with guns, in statue form, to protect the already dead. It's confusing.
Lions are a common option. This one's cute.
Oh, hey buddy, there's something on your face.
I prefer this lady guard with the complicated up-do.
I also really like the intricate sculpture work.
The descendants provide variable levels of upkeep.
Red paint is popular.
The original Peranakan tiles are spectacular (and would have been stolen in many countries, I suspect).
