Chickens, Ducks and birds
A swan swimming in the pond
During our recent holidays in Taiwan we came across some of the local animals in the places we visited. There were some ducks and swans at the place where we did tie dye.
A duck I saw
They were happily swimming around in the pond during dinner time. I love this green head duck. It looks like the traditional wooden duck that we normally see in the shops.
Free Range Chicken
There were chicken too roaming the grounds at Zhuo Yeh Indigo House in Sanyu. I didn’t get very close for a picture as I didn’t want the chicken to go scattering away before I could take a shot.
Another view of the chickens
The same chicken up a tree
I didn’t know that chickens love roosting in trees. I always thought the they stayed on the ground or in the hen house when it was time for a rest. Really interesting to see them perching on branches on a tree.
A crane I spotted at DanShui
The kids are not very big fans of animals so we didn’t put the Zoo or farm stay on our schedule for this trip.
We did spot a few cranes at the river side in Danshui when we went there for a morning walk.
A bird I saw while crane spotting
Have you seen any animals lately?
