Seeing a rare oriental multicolored hornbill might be a source of excitement for some, but for a Pasir Ris family, it was a horrible experience, literally.
Taking on Facebook to share a riveting blow-by-blow from two hornbills’ 90-minute visit to his home on Thursday (December 17), Ho Xiang Tian didn’t mince words.
In short, “they shit all over the place,” Ho wrote.
It was raining when the two birds flew onto the 10th floor through the door, he related.
“It was such a strange and unexpected sight that I was paralyzed for a moment as my mind tried to process what happened.”
Despite several attempts to scare the birds away, including brandishing a bamboo pole and opening all its windows, the birds were unfazed.
Ho even tried texting the Society for Animal Concerns Research and Education (Singapore). Unfortunately, the wildlife rescue group was too overwhelmed to help them, he said.
After exploring various locations around the house and leaving “gifts” for their hapless hosts, the birds finally came out the window.
