Bird Park

Sunday, June 29, 2008

Visited The world of living colours aka Jurong Bird park. We arrived at 11am and had our home made lunch in my car again, haa..

Blessed with fine weather we were able to watch the New Birds ‘n Buddies Show which features the talking parrot: Amigo, probably the only one Amazon in the world who sings Rasa Sayang (a local folk song) and displays linguistic agility.
Sassy the Cockatoo who acts as a messenger of coupons & money notes, so volunteer 1st in order to get a free drink coupon, mind u each can/bottle drink cost $3 and $4 respectively.

Next we watch the Birds of Prey Show a very exciting performance exhibiting spectacular sight of 20 different birds of prey ~ kites, vultures, storks, eagles, hawks all congregating at the arena at the same time. These birds fly real low and we can feel the wind swishing pass our ears.

Our mini lunch - Shrimp wanton and Takoyaki rice strips.



Crowned Pigeon, posing with us, lol.

The hornbill is the only flying bird with eye lashes and they are really long.

In the Lory Loft, its actually a big bird cage!

We're at the world’s largest walk-in aviary with the highest man-made waterfall standing at over 30 metres.

An unexpected intruder, the endangered Malayan Sun Skink.



Vicky the Hornbill.

Mr. And Mrs. Horn-the Toco Toucans.

The Falconer & his eagle.

Himalayan Griffon Vulture with a wing span of 4metres!!
