Dear all;
Fancy an evening stroll after work to relax or just to have a very light workout?
Come join us on Gunung Raya and take an evening walk from the foothill up to the one of the car park areas. This should be about 1.5km walk for one way only. Catch the hornbills flying by, dusky leaf monkeys leaping away, macaques calling, woodpeckers pecking and glimpse of the sunset. Maybe the elusive Blue Winged Pitta (should we are lucky! hey, I had spotted it once along that route).
This is a non-interpretive and non-formal activity for all Malaysian Nature Society (MNS) members. What is this for then? Well, you can pick a choice from this list here:
1) Nature appreciation and exchanging ideas
2) Catching up with other members (in other words – socialising!!)
3) How a hornbill looks like? Does it horn?
4) Is the Pitta I had mentioned earlier is something like bread?
5) Prick the brains of other members
6) Challenge yourself with a 3km stroll
7) Fed up with sunsets at the beach and want a different sunset scene
8) Bring a newbie and convert the newbie to be one of us (I like this the best!!)
9) Been driving too much and need to do justice to the environment by doing a 3km walk
10) I am too bored to be at home, need some fun.
Please make sure you had made a selection from the above before reading on.
