It was a beautiful day to have family fun at Jurong Bird Park. The park situated at Jurong Hill had been around since 1971.

A fun day at Jurong Bird Park |
It had been so long that I can't even remember when was the last time I visited the park. So last weekend we decided to bring my family for a visit.

Entrance of the park |
Upon reaching the park, we were impressed by the cleanliness of the park. Our impression of the park was that there will be birds flying all over the place and poo droppings on the floor.

Pools Amphitheatre at Jurong Bird Park |
First stop was at the Pools Amphitheatre where we awaited for the fantastic 'High Flyers Show'.

We were greeted by the amazing parrots that could perform numerous acts. What impressed us was the talking parrot 'Bao Bao' that could sing Happy Birthday song and talk too. Not forgetting the swift flight by the parrots through different sizes of hula hoops.
There was also a parade of flamingos and pelicans during the show. It was interesting to see how birds can be trained to such extent and be able to do a performance in front a huge audience.

After the show we hopped over to the Hawk Arena to watch the next show called 'Kings of the Skies'. Make a guess what kind of birds will be performing. Yup it was the eagles, hawks, vultures, owls and falcons. They are the birds of prey that conqure the sky. The show was fantastic. Our first time up close with these birds of prey.

Different rooms at the Breeding and Research Centre |
There was also a 'Breeding and Research Centre'. Here we can see the nursery room as well as the food preparation room. It was a fun way to teach the children about taking care of birds.
 |
Penguins at Jurong Bird Park |
The last section which we visited was the 'Penguin Coast'. The penguins were so cute. Wish we could touch it.

Variety of birds found at Jurong Bird Park |
Overall, the place was super child friendly with lots of fun learning about the many different species of birds. There were restaurants and food kiosk around the park to satisfy our hunger too. Spending a day at the Bird Park was totally worth it.
Right now the park has some fantastic promotions that you may like to consider for the family. Hop over here to have a look. You may like to check out how to get there too.
