Aviation from Mother Nature - bird park camp

camping in the bird park... woo hoo weeee........ it was a really wonderful n fun experience...get to know lotsa fun n loving pple... though do abit of porter job by transporting bags... i still enjoy the whole camp... hee hee.... bo pian i volunteer wat....

first itinerary is to visit the Breeding and Research Centre... i like most is the feeding of a 1 mth old baby flamingo, which is artificially fertilized by the BRC... way coool...... the baby flamingo is soooo cute with its down-feathers.... just like little ugly duckling.... but i believe it will be a beautiful flamingo like those in the lake....

second on the list is the birds of prey show... veri veri nice.... the eagles n hawks will fly so low that its wings might hit ur head.... or rather it did hit mine... hahaha.....

after that we get to n see those behind the scenes things... saw how they train the eagle to go against the 70km/h strong wind... or rather not train.. but to show us the eagle's natural ability as its nest is usually high up in the mountains and the wind that they will experience.... it is beautiful how they spread their wings n control the wind under the wings.... WOW.....

then at nite, we had a nite walk round the pelicon cove and the flamingos.... they look so different at nite... furthermore with the guide to shine the way, we could see the behaviour of them more clearly... i love the way the pelicons came down one by one into the water... all following a single leader.... it is such a beautiful scene!!! cannot forget man.... then the flamingos will dart when the lights are shone onto them....sooo cute.... btw the bird park has 1001 flamingos!! (wonder if they counted the baby one?)

then they had camp fire n blah blah... den by right we r suppose to go sleep in the tent... but when we go back office to bath... we decided to stay there n sleep instead (got air con) hahaha... leave the campers n teachers at the campsite... hee hee....

next day better! got nothing much to do except to wait for the next group to come in at 3pm... so me n my fren went to feed the birdies!!! wooo hoooo...... we took the panorail for free (privilege of a volunteer)... hahaha... then went to feed the lories....(no nid to pay also) den also went to feed the birds into the waterfall aviary.... well... there was a little scare over there coz the african grey came n land on my shoulder... den it started to pick on my name tag... it is just fascinated by the shiny things... so scared that it attack my ears (with ear studs).... luckily my fren gave it the badge den it flew away happily with its collection....tsk tsk.... anyway i get to feed the birdies with worms again!!!! ahahahhaa.... so happy..... after that saw the pelicon chit-chat.... den also get to feed the swans!! hee hee.... i just enjoy feeding the birds!!
