Before I go on with the post I would like to point out that Chinese / Hong Kong People have a special relationship with their bird. They keep them as pets (like a lot of people do) but they also take them out for bird strollings. In the above pictures are couple of birds hanging out in a park. It was cool walking through it but the only thought on my mind was "Bird Flu"

The bird market is on Kowloon is called "Yuen Po Street Bird Gard" Take the Prince Edward MTR Station and walk towards the east.

Originally, the bird market was on Hong Lok Street, but it relocated to this Chinese-style bird garden on Yuen Po Street. There are hundreds of birds on display and the price of a bird is often decided by how well the bird sings. Apart from the birds, there are also other accessories for sale, including bamboo and teak cages, ceramic water vessels and food containers, and different types of bird food, including live crickets sold by the bag-full.
