It's this time around when one can see the "flying" animals in the sky of Bintulu. They are so captivating and can make one's heart yearn for their presence. There are so many of them; big and small, in many shapes, sizes and colours and never fail to draw large crowds to admire them. Who can resist capturing them in pics?
It's the Borneo International Kite Festival, a yearly event which took place at the Bintulu old airport site. This year's festival was held from 30th September until 3rd October. Participants, locally and from other countries were here to display their unique kites which came in many forms. The battle of the kites was on. A spectacular sight admiring every kite flying high.
The festival had ended but the sweet memory lingers on.

| The Batmen! |

| Oh no! That couldn't be my Nemo (kitten). So gigantic! |

| A testament. |
