About this submission

Nature's been mostly at peace during COVID-19 lockdown, but with Singapore reopening from lockdown, nature's starting to feel disturbed. The footage of this video was shot on 19 June 2020, the day before Phase 2 of Singapore's reopening. In Phase 2, retail outlets can open, dining in at restaurants and social gatherings of up to five people are allowed.

Being a sociable, outgoing person, I thought I would feel excited for Phase 2, but my enthusiasm had been muted by the fear of a spike in COVID-19 cases with more people heading out during Phase 2. I still am cautious.
