Bird park stroll



Bring En to The Singapore Bird Park after changing the fish tank water.

So nice to stroll through the park without a lot of other visitors. We stayed in the penguin captivity for more than 10 minutes to enjoy the gracefulness of the penguins. They actually enjoyed the classical music.

En also enjoy the swam, duck, pelican, flemingo and so on. It was a great evening, just two of us.

Fish courting

Now I shift my laptop in front of the fish task and start to write about them.

It is so exciting to see them chase each other for a few second, then seperate themself, maybe resting a bit, then they will come close to each other and the male will chase thhe female, and the female will run for her life.

8:32pm After one episode of chasing, they have some peaceful time now.

Just now, the male fish continue to blow bubble under the plant ater the chase.

8:34pm now, he is blowing bubble and wiggering his wirogoury around the nest. The female come near, as he noticed her, he chased her away.

8:35pm peaceful and no movement for other, chase again... stop, once the female is in sight of the male, they will have the chasing game. She go and hide behind the plant. peacful....
8:37pm both rest, female hide

8:38pm Male found the female, mild chase, peaceful

8:39pm Rest, chase, rest chase......

Better post first before battery running out...

Male fighting fish


Pretty betta given by kind soul. Now is placed in the rectangular tank. That is my breeding tank. The male and female is in the same tank now looking at each other. The female is placed in a round glass container from 3 in 1 coffee in the tank. They seems to be very peaceful together. Let see when to let them out together.

Female fighting fish


Just bought a female betta. Another name for fighting fish. The male fish added on monday show sign of ready to mate. Blowing bubbles. Try to breed them! A new challenge for me.

Play ground


Today is the Hari Raya Adilfitri. The Malay most important festival to celebrate end of fasting month.
I brought the kids to West Coast Park play ground for a fun morning. Ahyoh! The Mc Donald there was packed with huge crowd. Cannot find place to sit!!! End up eat breakfast in the park! After that we play sand with spade that belongs to others since we go empty handed.
En has big three sisters to play with her. They are really patient with my 2 years old. They play very different from the way I play to her which is more interesting! I am too old to climb around. They enjoyed each others company...
Before we left, a westerner (busker) was performing. He play music, juggling, unicycle and wrote there "I am not bagging, JUST FOR FUN..." He left some musical instrument around on the floor and the kids are free to play with them. Something new for En...
Best of all, it is really interesting and I fell very happy to see the Malay family go out together wearing clothes of the same colour tone. One family Papa, Mama, Baby grey, one family orange, this side maroon, so appealing to the eye, such a harmony and close family.Feels like back to the old kampung day. This seen only once a year.
