A Mother's Love: Witnessing the Tender Bond of Owls in the Heart of Singapore City



Last Tuesday, 14th May, 2024, in the heart of Singapore City, amidst the towering skyscrapers and bustling streets, a remarkable scene unfolds that captures the essence of maternal love in its purest form. High atop an enormous tree in Tanjung Bungah, a mother owl diligently tends to her two little owlets, nurturing them with unwavering devotion and care. As the press and the community gather around the nest, cameras in hand, they are drawn into a heartwarming spectacle of love and tenderness, especially poignant as Mother's Day approaches.


The sight of the mother owl feeding her young and teaching them to fly amidst the urban landscae serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring power of maternal love, even in the most unexpected of places. The babies owl, with their fluffy feathers and wide eyes, eagerly flap their wings and clumsily climb the tree trunk, guided by the watchful gaze of their doting mother.



As onlookers crane their necks and zoom in with their cameras, each snap capturing a fleeting moment frozen in time, they are transported into the intimate world of the owl family. The mother owl, with her gentle demeanor and unwavering patience, tenderly encourages her young to spread their wings and explore the world around them. Her actions speak volumes about the sacrifices and selflessness inherent in the journey of motherhood, as she dedicates herself wholeheartedly to the well-being of her offspring.

For centuries, owls have symbolized wisdom, intuition, and protection, embodying the timeless wisdom of motherhood. As the mother owl guides her young through their first flights and teaches them the ways of the world, she imparts invaluable lessons about resilience, perseverance, and the importance of family bonds. In her tireless efforts to nurture and protect her babies, she exemplifies the profound depth of a mother's love, a love that knows no bounds and transcends all barriers.

The scene unfolding in Tanjung Bungah serves as a powerful reminder of the universal nature of motherhood, a bond that transcends species, cultures, and boundaries. Whether human or animal, mothers share a common thread of unconditional love and unwavering devotion to their children. As Mother's Day approaches, the sight of the mother owl and her brood offers a poignant reflection on the role of mothers in our lives and the profound impact they have on shaping who we are.

As the sun begins to set on the city skyline, casting a golden glow over the urban landscape, the mother owl continues to watch over her young with steadfast determination and unwavering love. And as the community gathers to bear witness to this touching moment, they are reminded of the immeasurable value of a mother's touch, a mother's embrace, and a mother's unwavering support.

A Mother's Love: The Tender Wings of the Owl

In the heart of the bustling city's glow,
Amidst the towering buildings' flow,
A tender scene unfolds, serene and bright,
A mother owl, her love alight.

With feathers soft and eyes so wise,
She tends to her young, under moonlit skies,
Her wings outstretched, a sheltering embrace,
Guiding her owlets with gentle grace.
I
n the midst of urban hustle and rush,
Her love for her young, a sacred hush,
Teaching them to fly, to climb, to soar,
A mother's love, an endless store.  

With every flap, with every climb,
She whispers love, in rhythm and rhyme,
For in her heart, a love profound,
A bond unbroken, forever bound. 

As cameras click and crowds draw near,
Her love shines bright, crystal clear,
A testament to the depths within,
A mother's love, a sacred hymn. 

So let us pause, in awe and wonder,
At this scene, a love so tender,
For in the heart of the city's sprawl,
A mother's love, the greatest of all.

Happy Mother's Day


Happy Mother's Day is a holiday celebrated annually on the second Sunday of May in many countries around the world, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and many European countries. The day is meant to honor mothers and mother figures for their contributions to their families and society as a whole.

The modern version of Mother's Day was first celebrated in the United States in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother, Ann Jarvis, who had worked to establish "Mother's Day Work Clubs" to improve public health. Anna Jarvis campaigned for the holiday to become official, and by 1914, President Woodrow Wilson had declared Mother's Day a national holiday.

However, the celebration of mothers and motherhood dates back much further, with ancient Greeks and Romans holding festivals in honor of their maternal goddesses, and Christians celebrating "Mothering Sunday" in the UK since the 16th century.

To all the mothers out there,


You are the sun in our sky,

The beating of our hearts,

The rock that we lean on,

When our worlds fall apart.


You give us love unconditionally,

And guide us through our days,

You teach us right from wrong,

And show us kindness in so many ways.


Your love is like a warm embrace,

That carries us through life,

You are our shelter from the storm,

And the beacon in the night.


We thank you for your boundless love,

And the mercy that you show,

For all the sacrifices you make,

And the kindness that you bestow.


So here's to all the mothers out there,

We celebrate you today,

For all the love and joy you bring,

In so many countless ways.


You are the nurturer of our dreams,

The one who sees our potential,

You believe in us when we falter,

And help us rise again, essential.


You are the one who stays up late,

To comfort us when we're ill,

You put our needs before your own,

And love us with a love that's real.


Your strength and courage inspire us,

To be the best we can be,

You have shown us what true love is,

And for that, we are so lucky.


So to all the mothers out there,

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

For all the sacrifices you make,

And for being there from the start.


Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing mothers out there,

We celebrate you and your unwavering love and care.
