Murals Of Native, Migratory Birds Transform Forgotten Corners Of Hong Kong

Murals Of Native, Migratory Birds Transform Forgotten Corners Of Hong Kong

In a quiet village in Hong Kong, a man named Dominic Johnson-Hill had an idea to paint big, beautiful pictures of birds on old, empty houses.

He wanted to show how amazing birds are and how they travel long distances.

He asked a special artist named Rob Aspire, who is known for painting birds, to help him.

Together, they painted eight different birds on the walls of abandoned houses.

Some of these birds are native to Hong Kong, and others visit during their long migrations.

The murals are so beautiful that people from all over Hong Kong come to see them.

Some people even draw chalk arrows to help others find the bird pictures.

The project is still growing, and more bird murals might be added in the future.

The goal is to make people appreciate and protect the birds and the special places where they live.
