Bird Park 1

Where is vincent you ask ? Why blog no update de ? These are questions that floats around the brain of most readers who used to come to this small corner to waste time reading the not-very-interesting-post by Vincent Chin.

Is the blog dead ? Maybe...Maybe not. But anyway my semester is very packed. So i won't be posting much at all during this period. Here are some updates to break the ice and to keep the blog from smelling too nasty due to rot.

KL BIRD PARK

I dunno about you, but usually when you relate an object with Malaysia, the first impression I get is....eh...*inferior* AHEM ! a 'superb' quality object. I don't know why I feel this way...the 3 months of NS training should have made me patriotic but somehow it had a reverse effect on me.

So when Clarence said KL BIRD PARK, I was expecting nearly dead birds lying around. Emo and depress birds trapped in cage and dead birds hanging in the ceiling. When I got there, I was quite to surprise to find the condition of the Bird Park in very GOOOOOOOD shape.

There are dead birds there, yeah, but they are mummified and for display. Also contrary to my premature speculation, the birds are not depress, emo and trapped in cages (some of them are in cages, big birds like Ostrich for example) . They roam freely and they are healthy. Their diet consist of fruits....A LOT FRUITS. The birds here definitely have a healthier diet than humans for sure.

Here are some nice photos =)

Photography failure due to back light. Bird btw with some photoshop tweak.

Birds making out. And someone was actually in awe with the mouth wide open "waaaaahhhh..." and we have to tell him to close his mouth in case something drip in.

Burung nuri ( i think ) eating fruits. The blue one eats long bean !

This is a peacock.

Very nice tail.....must pluck one...must pluck one...

No ! Just one feather ! Don't run !!

I failed to get a peacock feather as a souvenier. =( but as i was leaving the bird park, i saw an indian family walking out of the park with peacock feathers. 0_o How did they capture that dang peacock. It runs so fast. Will post more pictures for my next post. =)
