Discover Nature in Hong Kong


 

Hello everybody, I hope you all had a good summer. I am very excited to be back to teach you all this year. We already have some fun English activities planned for you all.

This month our theme is “Discover Nature” so my blog is about how you can discover nature in Hong Kong.

 
One of my favourite things about Hong Kong is how you can get close to nature even in the big city. You can go to the beach or hike up a mountain.

There are also lots of parks and nature reservations such as the Hong Kong Wetland Park in Tin Shui Wai and Kadoorie Farm near Tai Po.

Here are some unusual animals you can see in Hong Kong:

 

Pink dolphin
 

Porcupine


Leopard cat
 

Chinese Pangolin

 
Otter

Fruit bat

Romer’s tree frog

 
Bamboo snake


Spoonbill
 

Butterfly


This is a site all about wildlife. http://kids.wwf.org.hk/lang/en

 

Here is a British site with some ideas of ways children can discover nature. http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/17693814

 

Please post your own ideas about how to discover nature in Hong Kong!

  3. I joined the summer camp in Ocean Park this year. I learnt a lot of things about animals. The part I like most was touching a stingray.

    1. Hi Rhino,

      Wow, it sounds very exciting to touch a stingray. What did it feel like? What is your favourite sea creature? Mine is a seahorse.

      Thanks for replying,

    1. Dear Maggie,

      Thanks for your message. I haven't seen a porcupine in Hong Kong either, but I know that it is possible to see them in the countryside. It is difficult to see them because they are nocturnal. This means they sleep in the day and look for food at night.

      Good luck looking for porcupines, tell me if you see one!

      Miss Amy :)

  23. Thank you for the recommendation Miss Feng! Is that park in Hong Kong? I will check it out. Agnes, I like lots of animals. This weekend I went to Macao and saw some lemurs. I like them because they look very funny when they jump and they are good at climbing trees. They also look quite peaceful when they sit and enjoy the sun. When I was young I used to climb a lot of trees. I also like rock climbing. Have you ever seen a leopard cat, Agnes?
