Chinese New Year

On the first day of Chinese New Year, I went to temple with my family after my breakfast. It was a very ordinary day.

However, my second day of Chinese New Year was very interesting.

On the second day of Chinese New Year,my father brought my family and I to Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve.It is a place where we could observe birds and many other living things in nature.I was very excited.

When we reached there,we parked our car and went to buy our tickets. After that, we started tracking along the path.Then, we passed a long bridge. Guess what I saw?? There were three sea otters by the bank of the Kranji River mouth. They were taking a dip in the brackish water.

At the same time, I saw many fishes in the river. Some of them were enormous. I saw a terrapin swimming gracefully in the water too ! I was quite suprised with what I saw.

While walking on the gravel path, I spotted a squirrel chewing tree barks. I realised that this place is very interesting. My father video taped it. It was alerted and scampered away. (You can scroll down to view the video)

Suddenly,I felt something crawling on my thumb. It was a big red ant! I was so scared that I screamed and beat it.In the end, the ant died. I was relief.

After a while, we came to an aerie which was about four stories high. It was quite scary climbing on it as it looked like it was going to break.It was quite tiring climbing the steps. At the top, it looked like a tree house. We could observe birds from that height. I spotted many egrets, kingfisher, heron and storks.

At last, I reached the exit. I was very tired but enjoyed myself very much. However, I was very reluctant to leave.I wished that my parents would bring me there again.
