East Coast Park with possible dugong feeding trails
There is a shallow lagoon at East Coast Park which has slowly been taken over by seagrasses. Today, I return for the first time in 5 years to find a lovely seagrass meadow teeming with marine life. And saw possibly some dugong feeding trails!
We also quickly checked up on Bedok Jetty earlier.
My first time back to this shore since Jun 2016! There is now a long and wide sand bar next to the canal mouth. Which seemed to have formed a calm shallow lagoon for seagrasses and other marine life to thrive.

(Sea) Apple overload at Changi
There were lots of large Sea apple sea cucumbers at Changi today. Also, a lot of sea stars and other kinds of sea cucumbers on the lush seagrasses here.
An astonishing variety of marine life also encrust the legs of a small jetty nearby.
Although its common name is Sea Apple, this amazing technicolour creature is not a vegetable or a fruit. It is a sea cucumber. It s eye-poking colour combination is a warning of its toxic nature. Please don t touch or collect this sea cucumber. It does not do well in an aquarium and often, like a toxic bomb, will kill all other animals in the tank. Today, I saw 6 large ones!
