Bird bang


There’s a loud bang before my boss and I discovered a bird crashed into the window. The bird fell on the ground but still alive. I picked it up and stroked it gently...It must be in pain. After a while, I left it on the ground and snapped few pictures. It’s a colourful and beautiful bird but I had no idea what kind of bird it was. An hour later, I was getting worried as the bird remained still... Hey Birdy, are you ok? Why don’t you fly back to the tree? I tried to get closer before it suddenly flew away. But not too far...! It flew into my office...ohh my!

Wind travellers




Strong wind was blowing through the trees as it’s going to rain very soon. From my office’s courtyard, I was enjoying a magnificent view on the sky. Seeds dissemination!!! A lot of seeds travelled by sailing in the wind in their most elegant ways. The wings were twisted and they swirled over long distance. Some of them dropped on the roof and ground. I could easily catch them with my bare hand.

Leaf-change in Jelutong tree


Jelutong...it’s a big tree and used for its wood. Every working day, I sit on my chair...through the window, a big Jelutong tree is just right in front of my eyes. Tall and strong! Since my office moved to this new premises end of last year, autumn happened twice already! I love the moment when the stiff breeze comes along, the Jelutong tree gets rid of its leaves, and fall leaves drop on lawns and road will be covered in dead leaves. The tree is leafless. But then, there is nothing more beautiful than the young Jelutong leaves start to expand few days later. Beautiful!!!

Fallen stars



It was 10 March 2011... I was staring outside my office’s window when realizing that the grasses were decorated by green stars. I looked up... Ohh, these stars must be belong to this tree! It was amazing because last week the tree looked so pale and lifeless without any leaves. Few days passed by, the green stars kept falling from the tree like rains and covered the grasses just like a beautiful green carpet.



1st April 2011, most of the fallen stars started to wither and turn black. The green carpet almost disappeared when I discovered flowers with seeds here and there among the grasses. It looked like the green stars came out with a new stylish appearance. With their unique petals, these seeds were blown by the wind and will start to germinate if they arrived in a suitable habitat. But these seeds were still young... It was raining and windy for the whole week, no wonder lots of young seeds were carried away from the parent plant.



As time goes by, brown petals began to fall off. Yesterday, 13 April 2011, I could see birds and squirrels hanging onto the tree, eating the buds and seeds. Nature is amazing!
