Went to the bird park today and saw lots and lots of exotic birds. We were really impressed by how big the macaws were, how red the scarlet ibises were, and how ridiculous the toucans and pelicans looked. Basically, they all looked more or less like they do in pictures, which always comes as a bit of a surprise for things that look this strange.
Other highlights included:
birds of paradise,
birds with blue mohawks,
feeding the birds,
seeing the world's biggest man-made waterfall,
owls (mainly because it was cool and dark in there),
shoebill,
flamingos,
punk rockers,
penguins (OMG, AC!),
and love birds (these two were cuddling so cutely until I got the camera out).
Note: most of these are my names for the birds, not their scientific or common names.
The Jurong Bird Park in Singapore is an amazing place to see various species of colorful birds the parrots are the most prominent birds to be seen there. They are named as macaw parrots which are the expensive parrot birds in the world and are found in few countries.
