Jurong Bird Park

Hello Most Excellent Ones,

Truly one of the most interesting things to do in Singapore is to visit the Jurong Bird Park.  Their collection of birds is amazing.  The park itself is very lush with plenty of vegetation and many of the bird exhibits are open so you can get a really close look at the fowl.   There is also a massive Aviary that includes a 100 foot waterfall.  Amazing.  As the pictures will prove God has a sense of beauty, elegance, and humour when it comes to birds.

Have a great week

Love adios and ping on!

 Jurong  Park had the most interesting collection of Pelicans I had ever seen.

 Eating time.  Note the swan trying to get into the action.

 Taking a short break.  Note some storks are also trying to muscle in.

There were also several different types of Storks:

 This is called a Shoebill because its bill reminds someone of a dutch clog.

 Elegant.

 Ugly.

Penguins!

Emperor Penguin.  Very regal.

The Penguin enclosure was quite large and busy with Penguins doing what Penguins do..

Puffins!

Macaws!  A riot of beautiful colours.

Flamingos!
