KL Bird Park with my Family
|
This was my first visit to bird park KL with my eldest girl. Back then she was just 1 year plus and still sitting on the stroller. We go as in a big family with sister and bro all together. The weather is good and we have enjoy the day so much.
Bird Park is located in the serene and scenic Kuala Lumpur Lake Gardens, it is only 10 minutes drive away from the city centre of Kuala Lumpur. It is the home to more than 3,000 birds of approximately 200 species of local and foreign birds.
Sprawling approximately 20.9 acres of verdant valley terrain, the park is divided into 4 zones; Zone 1 and 2 make up the free-flight zone; Zone 3 is the Hornbill Park and Zone 4 is where the birds are placed in separate cages and mini aviaries.
One of KL Bird Park's most extraordinary feature is that in Zone 1, 2 and 3, birds are let free in the aviary which closely resembles their natural habitat. With this free-flight concept, birds are able to breed naturally in this unique environment. |

The main feature that distinguishes KL Bird Park from any other bird parks is the concept of free-flight.
One of the most prominent evidence that these birds have adapted so well to this environment is that they are already able to breed naturally. |

Entertaining bird show. The kids love it when they ask for volunteers |

So many colourful parrots. We walk to every section following the map given and also rest at the restaurant and cafe. Ice cream is a must in this humid weather. We bought our own food and enjoy the picnic moments with my family |

You can feed bread to them. But I do saw people feeding the bird with chicken rice. Must be very yummy huh?
The good thing is we can see the bird in a very clear distance and we can enjoy catching them with our kids. But when we are holding on to our bread the bird will come and chase us for it and some snatch it from above our head. They fly everywhere. That will make the kids frightened. |
Definitely a place to visit with your kids for them to get in touch closely with the bird and nature.
The Hornbill section is a must visit and I am glad that the bird park is really suitable for the kids for them to explore themselves running towards the bird and learn on different kinds of species. Advisable to bring along your cap / umbrella, mosquito repellent,bread to feed the bird for your kids, extra clothing, a good walking shoe, drinking water, and own food (no restriction on the food and drinks).
