they have removed all the barriers leading to the nature section of admiralty park, which means visitors are now welcome. looks like not many people are aware of this, as mine was the only car in the car-park at the north entrance.
i headed for the mangrove area and spent sometime watching three foreign nationals trying to catching fish with nets at low tide in the river sungei cina. they did not seem to have much luck. from the shaded track i walked on and crossed the second bridge to get to the wider unshaded track.
as i walked past the first clump of nipah palms, i heard a thumping sound. turning to where the sound came from, i saw two snakes - about 1.5m long - tangled together.
the two snakes must have been as startled as i was because by the time i got my camera out, they had untangled themselves and disappeared into the grass. at least, snakes have some sense of modesty and decency - they quickly get out of the act in the presence of a spectator.
i am not very familiar with snakes but they looked like cobras to me.
