Post Scriptum


It was long time ago when I wrote my first article in this blog. Much time passed, lots of things happen and lots – change. I changed. 

My beloved Dasyueshan

If you will read my articles from the very beginning –you will feel all the differences that happen to me.
When I arrived here, to Taiwan from Russia, I couldn’t imagine myself what will happen, what I will learn and whom I will meet. And for sure, I couldn’t imagine that everything would be so amazing!
Here, in Taiwan I use this word – “amazing” – pretty often. It is because I can’t find any other word in my English lexicon that will express my feelings so clear. I am amazed by Taiwan, by Taipei, by Dasyueshan, by every other place that I visited during these two months. 

My beloved Dasyueshan


I passed a long, very long way here in Taiwan. I was just Olga from Russia in the beginning. But step by step I learnt..
how to behave – behave in the forest; behave among people with whom I work but who could hardly understand me; behave in my group, my beloved friends.
how to treat – all the animals and plants, even insects whom I couldn’t even touch without being scared before; treat myself and others.
how to listen – listen to the signs of weather and nature; listen to the birds in the evening and early in the morning; listen to my feelings and wishes; listen to others, even if I can’t understand their speech, listen to their initial message, that they wanted to tell.
how to express – express the feelings that I have towards Dasyueshan, Taiwan and my friends; express my point of view and idea.
how to talk – talk every month and week, every day and hour using the language that is not my native one; talk to people whom I don’t know and who will leave in an hour.
I learnt so many about everything… It is so pathos to say such words, but things never be the same for me again. And it is really good.
Now, it’s time to say goodbye…
Goodbye everyone who read our blog and liked it – thank you for your support.
Goodbye Dasyueshan – you’ll in my heart forever.    

My beloved Dasyueshan

Sincerely yours, Olga.

5230,我愛森林(5230, I love forest)



            當上國際志工,在大雪山森林遊樂區工作!一個常年雲霧繚繞的地方,我從來沒想過我會來到這山上,不是當一名旅客,而是來服務大眾。從懵懂的一個小女生,到現在能主動開口問遊客們需要什麽服務,甚至是單槍匹馬帶隊解說,這過程讓我重新認識了我自己。
            馬來西亞人給人的第一印象就是我們會講好多種語言哦!每每和遊客們提起我是馬來西亞人時,他們就會很驚訝地說我的中文英文台語說得好好~真的是誇獎了!呵呵~我得到肯定與尊重。雖然遊客們都是我生命中的過客,但是謝謝他們讓我有學習的機會,沒有他們,我哪來的機會可以服務大眾呢!也謝謝每個星期六和星期日的到來讓我可以忙得不亦樂乎。[那天的人潮可說是絡繹不絕]
            與大自然接觸了那麼久,每次上山可少不了步道。這陣子志工老師們不吝嗇於傳授知識給我們青年志工,我大概可認出大雪山森林浴步道及天池雪山神木步道的植物名稱。最喜歡二葉松了,除了它可愛的果實外,我最欣賞它的專情了!每當其兩針葉掉落時,其柄還是牢牢把它們套在一起,針葉還可折成心形呢~在這裡與大家分享一首非常浪漫的詩:

勸君莫種紅玫瑰,
花開花落各自飛,
請您送我二葉松,
生生世世永相隨。

其實我和大雪山也可算是浪漫的邂逅吧!從相識、相認、相知,相愛,如今到了永別的時候(有點肉麻的說)~只想告訴大雪山~ 5230,我愛森林!

            這裡沒有長篇大論的動植物學,只有從我嘉怡的角度看大雪山。
今天就來說說一些大雪山鳥類的小小故事!

金翼白眉/台灣噪眉 (white wrinkled laughing thrush)
  • 翅膀有點閃亮的金黃色,兩眼上下有明顯的白色條紋,因而得名!
Its wings have shiny golden colour, both eyes upper and lower side have obvious white stripes.
  • 在大雪山可說是無處不見,尤其在48k49k
Can be easily found at 48k and 49k around Dasyueshan.
  • 生性不怕人。
They don’t fear at human.
  • 飛翔能力欠佳。
Flying ability is not so good.

中杜鵑 (Cuckoo bird)
  • 邪惡的鳥類~
Evil bird~
  • 它會把自己的蛋下在別的鳥類的巢,再把其他鳥類的蛋踢出巢外。這樣,其他鳥類會誤以為是自己的孩子,而照料得無微不至。
It will lay eggs in other birds’ nest and kick out others eggs from the nest. The other birds will thought that the eggs hatched are their children and take care of them.

星鸦  (Nutcracker)
  • 健忘的鳥類~
Forgetful bird~
  • 常儲存華山松果實為糧食,但這個樹洞藏一藏,那個樹洞藏一藏,它自己也忘了藏在哪裡!? 因此無形中幫忙華山松傳播繁殖^^
Collect  pine seeds as food supply in any tree holes until he himself also forget where did he keep them.  Imperceptibly, he helps the pine tree to breed.

冠羽畫眉 (Taiwan Yuhina)
  • 擁有可愛的龐克頭。
Has cute Punk hairstyle.
  • 發出“吐米酒”的清脆叫聲
Give out “tu mi jiu” chirping sound.

白耳畫眉 (White-eared Sibia)
  • 發出“吐吐米酒”的清脆叫聲
Give out “tu tu mi jiu” chirping sound.

Tenth Anniversary Expo(十年回顧展)


              As everybody knows, there is a typhoon time now all around Taiwan. That’s why my friends – other volunteers and me stay in the city for one (and maybe more) day and work in the office.  And we noticed the differences that appeared to happen to the whole entire interior of the office building.
The Expo dedicated to the results of ten-year working now is holding in Dongshih Forest District Office.  If you don’t see it yet, you still have some time – the expo is still working although the main events have been yesterday, on Wednesday.
I want to tell you some information, what we can see on the three floors.

大家應該知道,因為颱風的關係我和其他青年志工會不時需要呆在山下的辦公室工作打部落格。這天,我們也發覺了整個東勢林管處的室內裝潢有點與眾不同了。
原來我們遇到了十年成果展。雖然重要活動在昨天星期三已舉行了,但這展覽到現在還繼續展出。
我想和您分享一些信息。
 

First Floor第一樓
On the first floor you can see the artworks made by prominent artists all around Taiwan. They are made of special wood – they didn’t cut it, instead they found it after the natural disasters such as typhoons. During them lots of woods are pulled out and flown away.
You can guess the meaning of this artworks easily as they explain it very clear and all the time it connected with nature, its protection and beauty.

第一樓所展出的是來自台灣各地有名的木雕家的作品。這些作品都是以漂流木雕製而成的,讓木材得以永續利用。木雕的主題很明顯,只要用心一看便知道它與大自然有關聯。除此之外,各部門也通過看板展示了他們十年來育林的工作成果。有獎座及證書表揚各單位的傑出表現。



Also on the first floor there is an exhibition from the department going with seeds and their planting. The expo shows us the results of their work in ten year period. We can see the board with the report and lots of photos proving the information.


Rescue team
Here you can see everything connected with seeds and plants. There are also lots of prizes and certificates praised the department for excellent work.

Second Floor第二樓
Now let’s go up to the second floor and have a look what they have.
On the second floor there are two departments – both of them connected with infrastructure and protecting of the nature but in different spheres.
On the right you will see the department that build and repair roads. Their present the detailed report of their work since “921” earthquake. The amount of work that has been done, roads built and facilities constructed is worth to be proud of.


第二樓則是兩個部門的展覽有關設施維護及保護大自然的相關工作。左邊展出的是其中一個部門自921地震所維修的路況、工作報告及目前所興建的新設施。右邊是另一部門所展出的照片。場地的正中間則展示了一些設施配備、制服等。



On the left we can see almost the same picture but made by the other department. And they show us the information about bridges and supporting constructions.



Also we can see lots of photos that have been made each year from ninetieth letting us know what has been done during this period.



On the center there is an exhibition of some facility equipment, uniforms and other tools used by the workers of these departments and created by them.



Also there are some researches books and certificates.

 


Third floor第三樓
It’s right time now to move to the third floor to see one more exhibition – the exhibition of Recreation department.


It is one of the brightest expos in the office. Here you can find lots of the prizes of the volunteer teachers. Do you know how many hours they worked as volunteers a year to get such prizes? More than 300 hours. Amazing! And here is far more than one prize!

第三樓的展覽比較活潑。您可以找到志工老師們所得過的獎項。您知道嗎?他們可要服勤300小時以上才有資格獲得此獎項,太神奇了!展出的還有一些DIY作品、動植物書籍、旅遊手冊、獎牌獎狀等。自然教育中心的一些特別刊物、研究報告、獎狀也整齊排列於桌上。當然也少不了一些關於營隊、工作假期、交流會的海報。我認出了一些匾額上藍鵲的圖案。


Also there are some of their creations – different DIY-s.
Next table shows us the results of the works of Nature Centers. They published special books each year so visitors could know what events would be held during that period.


On the next table you can see all the books, DVD-s and CD-s that were made by the department during ten years. They are connected with everything – history, animals, birds, plants, tourist spots and attractions and lots other interesting facts.


Moving further we can see very-very-very long table with all kinds of certificates, prizes and medals that this department won. No comment – just amaze with the view!



On the walls and banners you can see the information about out-door activities – camps, working holidays, conferences and so on.



In the center you can see some painted pictures showing us famous Taiwanese bird. I recognized Taiwan Blue Magpie.



Even a short look on the expo can let you know what a great job all these people did and do every day. If you have a chance – visit Dongshih Forest District Office in Fengyuan and see yourself this exhibition. There is so much interesting that I haven’t mention, you can spend so many time looking at all the expos, excited and amazed. 

您應該來東勢林區管理處一趟,好好參觀這十年回顧展,了解一下職員們每天的工作性質。太多有趣的我還沒提到,您應該花一花時間看看這令人驚嘆的回顧展。
