Let's take another look at Ham Ham Jr
.It's almost time...look at how translucent he's become...
And the next morning...
More translucent than ever. Mummy decided to bring Ham Ham Jr to work. She felt that it's almost time and she wanted to capture the moment...Mummy takes over from here :
While on the MRT train (subway) I kept a close eye on Ham Ham Jr. But nothing happen. So I decided to take a nap. Woke up as we entered the tunnel and I saw Ham Ham was bursting forth from the cocoon. Tried to take a video but lighting was bad in the tunnel and I cldnt get the camera to focus....Arghh!!! And of all things. The card read FULL!!! Sorry guys...no picture of the actual "birth"
Waiting until reach the interchange and switch the card. Now for more pix...
First pix
Look at the crumpled wings....
Tummy Tag!!!
Another pix in the connecting train
A pix took by accident but take a look at the advertisement panel at the back. A strange coincident
Walking toward park near my office...
Arrived at the park. Ham Ham Jr waiting for its release
First release...
Opening wings...
Flight checking...
Full back view
It took quite a long time to dry it's wings. Check out this video. Sorry for the shaking. I was nervous yet awestruck by the beauty.
And for the final released...
Good-bye Ham Ham Jr. May you have a beautiful week ahead!
