CSCM celebrates the Festival of Wings Unpredictable tides and the rainy season is cause for concern, especially in low-lying areas. The Kuala Selangor Nature Society (KSNS) had a mangrove tree-planting drive in October to help reinforce the soil in the surrounding areas of the Kuala Selangor Nature Park. CSCM enlisted to the task and our contingent of tree-planting enthusiasts braved the scorching sun to help protect the muddy ground from the effects of bad weather. Our volunteers also had the opportunity to witness the annual flight of migratory birds from all over the world due to the seasonal shift in weather to the KSNS Nature Park shores. This flurry of activity has been named the 'Festival of Wings'.
