4237. Three species of butterflies seen outside Jewel Changi Airport/Terminal 1 on Monday 29 Aug 2022. Tawny coster on 23 Jul 2023

Monday. Rainy morning. 29 Aug 2022, 5pm outside Terminal 1. More traffic now that Covid-19 curbs have been removed. 

Today, NO face masks outdoors and indoors (except healthcare and trains). More people visit Jewel.

I expected no butterflies as most of the pink bougainvillea flowers have had dropped off.

Saw:

1. Four tawny costers. 

2. Striped albatross (male)

3. Medium-size light green butterfly.

Striped albatross male. Canon R5, P Mode. Focus on eye. Less than one second to take photo. He flew away.

Do we see eye to eye that this Striped Albatross is staring at me while sipping nectar from the flower?Jewel Changi Airport29 Aug 2022, 5 PM
