It was a nice sunny day. We decided to visit Penang Bird Park. It is situated in Seberang Perai. So we had to cross the Penang Bridge. We started our journey early to avoid the hot afternoon sun. Traffic at the Penang Bridge was smooth.
When we arrived, we found that there wasn't many parking space at the bird park. A friendly taxi driver told us that we can park at the roadside across the road. Daddy took the only parking space left happily.
A big parrot at the entrance greeted us with "hello" and startled mom. Everyone burst into laughter. I saw two big eagles. They were huge and very attractive.
Since it was a holiday, there was a huge crowd mainly students wearing school uniforms. At eleven thirty, there was a bird show. The show was spectacular. Amongst the birds that was perform during the show was a few eagles, parrots, owls and storks. I particularly like the storks. I find that they are really cute. The workers threw small fishes for them to catch. Ironically, they could catch each fish without fail with their long and narrow beak. We will amazed. Everyone clapped.
We strolled the park leisurely. We saw some extraordinary species. Other than birds, we also came across some turtles, crocodiles, fishes and snakes. The bird that I like is our Malaysian bird - the Hornbill. There are many types of Hornbill. Their colourful feathers are very attractive.
We stayed in the park till past noon. We went to Bagan Lalang for a sumptuous seafood lunch. Everyone was happy. It was definitely a memorable trip.
