The red panda (Ailurus fulgens), also called the lesser panda, the red bear-cat, and the red cat-bear, is a mammal native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China. It has reddish-brown fur, a long, shaggy tail, and a waddling gait due to its shorter front legs; it is roughly the size of a domestic cat, though with a longer body and somewhat heavier. It is arboreal, feeds mainly on bamboo, but also eats eggs, birds, and insects. It is a solitary animal, mainly active from dusk to dawn, and is largely sedentary during the day. 

The red panda has been classified as endangered by the IUCN, because its wild population is estimated at less than 10,000 mature individuals and continues to decline due to habitat loss and fragmentation, poaching, and inbreeding depression, although red pandas are protected by national laws in their range countries.

The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), literally "black and white cat-foot";  also known as panda bear or simply panda, is a bear native to south central China. It is easily recognized by the large, distinctive black patches around its eyes, over the ears, and across its round body. Many people find these chunky, lumbering animals to be cute, but giant pandas can be as dangerousas any other bear.

Changi, Singapore

My first postcard from Postcrossing ♥ came from Singapore

Travel time: 11 days

Changi is a very idyllic area that's a remnant of old Singapore. There are very few buildings and those that are there are mostly quaint, old and low-rise. Changi roads are narrower than most and are lined with huge angsana and palm trees. The area is not crowded and is mostly populated by those working in the airline companies nearby.

Changi Sailing Club ( CSC )

Established in 1936 by British Royal Engineers. CSC now has sailboats for charter, a pool and chalets, bars and a restaurant an a charming, palmtree-fringed beach by the outdoor deck. Members and visitors enjoy the sights and sound of the sea, a great view of Palau Urbin and some pretty impressive sunsets.

Thank you, Jiahui from Singapore!
