October 12, 2009 /

Still have a lot of pictures from my January 2009 visit to KL Birds Park that I haven’t got the chance to edit and publish yet. I am making time today to do just that.

My all-time favourite – Lesser Flamingos. I love observing their synchronised courtship dance; mesmerising!

Above are just some of the beautiful birds that can be found in KL Birds Park. If you like to see more, do visit the park and you’ll be amazed to see that some birds are actually friendly…well that is if you have sunflower seeds in your palm…
