Experiencing Nature – Raptor Watching

Sunday 14 Mar 2010
Some 40 plus members joined the annual happening at Tanjong Tuan (prev. Blue Lagoon) in Port Dickson. Organised by MNS (Malaysian Nature Society), the annual census of migratory homeward bound raptor birds draws thousands of visitors including foreign tourists. Quickly spotting the high-encircling birds, our excited members shared the binoculars and telescopes available to witness for themselves this wonder of nature. They even learned about the migration from a MNS birder.

After fortifying with icecream, they ventured to climb up the road to the famous lighthouse on the hilltop, including the youngest, baby Lee.

It was a wonderful opportunity for our members to be exposed to nature and learn that there are other beings sharing this earth too.

  1. very well organized and everybody enjoyed themselves. amazing to know that it takes the raptors 3 months to travel down from places like Siberia/Mongolia and 3 months to travel back. how fortunate we are to have a time machine call “motors/engines”.

  2. good job , for people who set up this website.sadhu 3x
