I am
an animal lover. The other day, I went to a park in which there was a huge bird
nest, the size of a football field. The nest is as tall as a four-story
building. It allows birds of all kinds to live with much more freedom than the
traditional small birdcage. Within the nest, visitors can see different birds
walk or fly freely everywhere without being afraid of people. There is a lake
in the middle of the bird nest. Wild ducks and white swans swim on the lake,
looking for food thrown down by visitors. Before I left the bird nest, I
attended a bird show, in which some birds were trained to speak, some to play
basketball and some to ride bikes. Of course they are toy balls and bikes, very
small. I liked the show very much.
