We last visited the Jurong Bird Park in Oct 2009<\/a>, and that was largely an inspired reaction to the amazing sights we saw at the Bali Bird Park. That was shortly after Hannah joined our family, so she didn’t join us as a newborn on that trip. We did the SIngapore Zoo family outing last June, so this holiday today, it was the Bird Park\u2019s turn again.<\/p>\n

The trip didn\u2019t turn out very well though. Weather was all bad from mid-morning onwards, starting with a fierce overcast, then drizzles, and finally lightning warnings and park announcements asking for visitors to vacate the children\u2019s park areas. Hannah was a little grouchy too (she was suffering from a slightly blocked nose); so we ended up just visiting a few attractions, the Lory Loft, and the Birds of Prey show.<\/p>\n

This was also the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8\u2019s second outing, and I\u2019m pretty happy with the lens. Saw a lot of persons with Canon L and Nikon 70-200mm f2.8 lenses, so no I didn\u2019t feel very special.=)<\/p>\n

All with the D7000 + Sigma 70-200mm, excepting the last family picture. Hannah struggled with her smile in this one.=)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
