The express objective for creating this book has always been to provide a concise introduction to various bird species regularly occurring in Singapore. The content has been carefully designed and researched to provide the reader with key insight regarding these birds. In addition, this book is written and illustrated by an overenthusiastic birdwatcher. In this book, she share her personal experiences encountering these 20 bird species in her ventures throughout Singapore's parks and gardens. I hope Get To Know Them: Introduction to Singapore's Common Bird Folk will appeal to both the beginner and experienced adventurer, as I aim to utilise my story to breathe new life and offer a new and more positive perspective regarding what is often overlooked by the public; the common neighborhood birds.
A portion of this book's profits will be donated to National Parks Board to fund wildlife conservation and research facilities. -
Ellena Gabrielle was born and raised in Indonesia before being whisked off to Singapore, and into the wild west that was high school. During the midst of the covid-19 pandemic, birds were what brought her solace and peace of mind, as she didn’t mind preoccupying themselves in her bedroom, drawing bird after bird after hours of birdwatching in many parks across Singapore.
Ellena Gabrielle is a young author and bird enthusiast. With a passion for nature and a love of birds, Ellena has dedicated herself to learning as much as she can about these amazing creatures and sharing her knowledge and experiences with others. In an effort to make people's lives even happier, she wrote and illustrated “Get to Know Them” as a means to help others pay more attention to the little things in life, and as a reminder to take the time and enjoy the not-so-grandiose.
