SINGAPORE - When news of an endangered white-crowned hornbill began circulating on Sunday in one of Mr Andy Chew’s chat groups, the 51-year-old made a beeline for Pulau Ubin, where the bird was spotted.
“I was fortunate that when I arrived at the location, the hornbill was already very active, doing circuits which allowed me to shoot it in flight and also its landings,” said Mr Chew, who could only photograph the bird for two hours before a storm rolled in. “A very coarse estimate of total population.. would be somewhere between 5,000-10,000,” Dr Yong said.
