Come and join us for a half day trip in Kepong Botanic Gardens (KBG), jointly organised by Selangor Branch Bird Group and FRIM’s Environmental Education Branch, for an introduction to bird watching. This activity is open to the public, hence, an opportunity to gather family members and friends (both young and old) for an experience with our lovely feathered friends and nature.
KBG is an ex-situ conservation of plants, for scientific studies and for displays as well as public education. There are also several theme gardens like ginger, bamboo and gymnosperm collections. Located at the base of Bukit Lagong Forest Reserve and several water bodies around the garden adds a touch of tranquillity to the garden.
Kindly bring along binoculars if you have a pair, drinking water, light snacks, sun block, umbrella and mosquito repellent. Come dressed in dull-coloured clothing and hat as well as comfortable shoes. The event shall end at noon.
