Did you know that Singapore is part of the East-Asian Australasian Flyway, a key migratory route used by birds flying south for the winter? To capture the peak bird migration season from September to November, Leica is partnering with The Untamed Paths—an organisation specialising in immersive guided walks and educational workshops focused on biodiversity. Together, we will introduce you to some of our avian cohabitants and share with you the essentials of birdwatching. Learn how to effectively spot and identify birds using the Leica Sport Optics!
Bring your adventurous spirit as you get yourself acquainted with Leica Sport Optics for birdwatching while embarking on a trail through the 6-hectare mangrove forest and beyond in Pasir Ris Park. Before the walk, participants will gather at the Leica Store at Raffles Hotel Arcade where you will receive professional tips, gain a deeper understanding of Singapore's avian environment, and discover how Leica Sport Optics is able to enhance your birdwatching experience by getting closer to nature.
You will then immerse yourself in the mangrove forest. With Leica Sport Optics in hand, you will gain a unique glimpse into the hidden lives of birds, uncovering valuable insights into avian biology and behaviours. Round-trip transportation will be provided between the Leica Store at Raffles Hotel Arcade and Pasir Ris Park.
