Amusement Park Palisades Amusement Park Amusement park is the more generic term for a collection of amusement rides and other entertainment attractions assembled for the purpose of entertaining a fairly large group of people. An amusement park is more elaborate than a simple city park or playground, as an amusement park is meant to cater to adults, teenagers and small children.	Birdwatching Trumpeter Swan Audubon, John James Birding is a hobby concerned with the observation and amateur study of birds. The term is of American origin; the term "birdwatching" is still commonly used in Great Britain and Ireland and by non-birders in the United States.

Garden Country Flower Cart Abrams, Peggy The word "horticulture" is formed from two Latin words "hortus," meaning "garden"; and "cultura," meaning "cultivation." Horticulture is a branch of agriculture, which is the science of farming, or the cultivation and management of plants and animals to supply man's needs. Gardening is the cultivation of plants within a relatively small designated area, such as in borders or enclosed spaces around a building, in a greenhouse, or in a container. Landscape gardening also includes the design and maintenance of areas such as sports fields, golf courses, public parks and cemeteries.
