Bukit Timah Nature Reserve follow up
I felt really great after visiting BTNS that day when we collected leaves, so I went again last Sunday to explore more of BTNS….including the cave path. I saw no cave but a gate….
Anyway, when I logged on to GCS after that, I read about a post where someone mentioned Tacca integrifolia (Bat lily) could be found on the cave path of BTNS….and I didn’t notice it! Must go back and look for it the next time….

Hi there, did you ever see your bat lily? Cos a couple of months ago, I was walking the Cave Path at BTNR and saw one! It was amazing! Nothing like your picture ….. it was black and gothic looking. A single solitary and totally beautifully ugly flower! Unfortunately, I didn’t have my camera with me so I don’t have a picture. The one I took with my phone doesn’t do it justice at all!
Two weeks ago, I came across another beauty at the Cave Path – a large gland coral snake ….. bright coral red head and tail and electric blue and black transverse stripes along its body. Again, no camera! I don’t know why I never learn ………
