Editor's Note

Doesn’t it feel like the first two months of the year have come and gone like a whirlwind? We are now standing at the end of the first quarter of 2021 – where has time gone? 

As we continue to adjust to life in the ‘new normal’, some things stay constant. Like our passion for greenery, biodiversity and companion animals! This month, we turn the (ahem) limelight on Lime and lime-related plants. Also, learn more about eight marine creatures in Singapore waters as well as lessons one pet owner gained from his blind dog. 

There is so much to learn about our flora, fauna and pets. If you love reading, check out our NParks Buzz microsite for a wealth of information. We have not forgotten those who prefer videos too! Head on to our NParksSG YouTube to get your kick. For the social ones, we have our latest TikTok too.

No time to look back… Onwards, March!
