Hort Park 5 - Tadpoles

This is very good educational pond for the kids. My little niece is so excited about the many eggs and tadpoles we saw at this pond.

The many bubbles you see in the ponds are eggs. Did you spot the tadpole(circled in red) in the above photo?

You have to look carefully for the lone tadpole which just wriggled a little bit...lol

Hort Park 3 - Wall Planters

Hort Park is so huge, you need good walking shoes to explore the park.

Saw these tall green planters where they grew so many different plants vertically.

Hort Park 2 - Sculptures

Some of the sculptures I saw in Hort Park. There are more but there are too many people there for me to spot more.



This must be the tin man in the story of Wizard of Oz

And I found the lion but I missed the scarecrow and dorothy, too many people in the park for me to spot them.
