It was an enthralling performance and I loved the postures and dance moves. Liked this posture more. Dancers are from Bhaskar’s Art Academy in Singapore and they are brilliant.

It looked like a javan myna from afar but has a unique tail and plumage. Beautiful little bird and happy to have a sight of it.

Herons love still waters and their reflection on it, I guess.

Interestingly such ritual is common in Hinduism. Vesak Day is also known as Buddha Purnima, a full moon day that marks birth, enlightenment and also death (Final Nirvana) of the Gautama Buddha. Also interesting to see a baby Buddha statue. Both Buddhists and non-Buddhists were performing this ritual.
