鸟 Post (Bird Bird Post)

One fine Saturday morning, I went up Penang Hill together with my friends. Nope, I didn't hike up via hiking trails up the hill. (I will only do that if I have NBTD or .. EFND?).

As usual, we took the easy way up.. via Funicular Railway.... The last time I stepped my foot up there was in 2002?

Since this is a 鸟 post, I will talk about birds. We visited the bird sanctuary next to The Bellevue Hotel. Cute boh the green little obedient birdie? I even let the cute little birdie walked on my finger. Mana tau.. the notti little fella 得寸近尺 - climbed all the way up to my shoulder and later to the back of my neck instead.. Kkkkkkkk..

The curious sam pat parrot - looking with great interest at my camera, cos I told the parrot "Smile, You are on Candid Camera" :P

Wah.. Blue-blue tei parrot with round-round tei big eyes.. The eyes look so fake, like rubber !! Feel like poking the eyes :P

Another shot of the same parrot but from different angle. Ahem at the weird posture. Bird ah Bird, u think u r performing in circus meh?

Eeeee... so fierce looking geh? Summore small eyes (luckily not pin point pupils) ..

Look at the stunt posture.. Clinging on to the ceiling with both claws leh !! Dun play-play. Ini burung banyak cekap. *Applause*

The polite & humble red-red tei parrot greeted me with "Hello", and rupa-rupanya that's the only English word he knows. Hello, hello & hello.. Cheh...

Kkkkkkk... Ini burung reminds me of Cocka, cos he looks like ayam with his fancy hairstyle. Have to keep a close eye before he starts pecking my camera lens with his sharp beak :P

Looks like ayam or not? Handsome juga ni burung ;)

Might be Cocka sked being locked inside the cage like the other birdies, then no freedom liao...

So bad geh the thief..
Curi the whole cage of 14 birds..
&*^%$#@ on your behalf to tat pencuri burung !!

kyh,
There's another pair of lovey-dovey parrots up there, which I didn't post up the photo ;)

If i can bring one back home, I will choose the first one - the green little birdie ;)

iml,
And some of the parrots have broken lower beaks.. Must be the result of biting the cage too much?

Muahahahahaha!!!!

mistipurple said...

er... you gotta ask the emperor that. not sure if you'd wanna eat his... elongated eel..

sengkor said...

free them.. free them.. they belong to the wild..

Anonymous said...

The birdies look rather fierce... beak and claws all so sharp sharp one! *runs and hides*

I also never been up Penang Hill in a long, long time... like maybe 7-8 years?

Selba said...

Oh.. they look so beautiful!!!

I love this kind of birds.

sengkor: I don't think it's a good idea to free them if they have been living with humans for a long time because in the wild, they might can not survive anymore.

Chen said...

cocka,
I guess it's the same reason why we can't see ayam's kkc. LOL

wah.. u dun bully lynnx lah..
later she piak u then i dunno liao

misti,
The emperor prefers to eat Long Yoke :P
Preferably the sinful & delicious Grade A++++ Gourmet Bak Kwa
kkkkkkk

sengkor,
Free them?
Aiyak.. wasted liao if lidat...
Parrot living in the wild..
Mmmmmmm....

Chen said...

rinnah,
The claws are indeed sharp..
Abuthen, most of the parrots have broken beaks, I mean the lower beak.
Likely cos they bite the cage too much?

Hehe, the parrots are all kept inside the cage. So don't worry. No need to run & hide wan.. :P

The weather up there in Penang Hill is not as cooling as before..
I sweat a lot when I was up there..
Aiyhhhhh...

selba,
U like parrots?
Those parrots are from different countries eg. US, Africa etc ;)

There are few hornbills inside the bird park too :)

YY said...

nice picture, will try to go there one day if possible..

Chen said...

SA,
Thanks SA ;)
Thank God u didn't cubit the baby's cheek :P
Kkkkkkkkk

raychin,
Thanks :)
Nothing much to do up there (and they have closed the Canopy Walk). I was hoping for cooler weather and I was kinda disappointed. It's hot.

Whiskoffee said...

Very nice photos you have there. =)

Whiskoffee said...

So many birds! Woo hoo!

Chen said...

Whiskoffee,
Thanks :)

I remember visiting the Jurong Bird Park too in Singapore, but that was 2 decades ago ;)
That was my first & only visit to Singapore up to date :D
