Ficus Fistulosa

 

Spotted this strange looking tree in Jurong Bird Park. This is commonly known as Yellow Stem-Fig, and native to Singapore. With fruits growing out from its main steam, they attract fruit-eating bats as well as squirrels.  Although what I spotted is just a crawling snail enjoying the entire fruit cluster all by itself.

Common Names: Yellow Stem-Fig, Ara Serapat, Kelampung
