   小鸟天堂是广东新会闻名中外的生态旅游景点，天然赏鸟胜地，它位于新会城区以南10公里的天马村。
    380多年前，河中一个泥墩、一棵榕树长期繁衍,形成枝叶覆盖１万多平方米，树上栖鸟千万只，鸟类树相依，人鸟相处，和谐奇特，世间罕有的一道天然美丽风景线。１９３３年，文学大师巴金先生乘船游览后叹为观止，写下优美散文《鸟的天堂》，“小鸟天堂”从此得名。大师这篇经典作品被镌刻在景区入口广场上供游人品味，美文赞美景，美景更多娇，使人更加热爱美，向往美。
    历来深受游客赞誉的小鸟天堂，２００２年重新规划扩建，并对动、植物自然生态群落加以悉心保护和优化，形成占地面积４０万平方米，以独特的鸟类生态风景为主题，集生态旅游、文化旅游、健康旅游、休闲旅游于一体，充分展现旅游新时尚的园林化，多功能大型景区。
    小鸟天堂的鸟类以野生鹭鸟居多，还有毛鸡、麻鹤……白鹭晨出暮归，灰鹭幕出朝回，他们依时有序，互不干扰，极有风度。每于清晨薄雾中，万千灵鸟嘎嘎呼唤，翩翩起舞，凌空翱翔，野趣盎然，蔚为半观；那一片和鸣谐调的天籁之声，“人间那得几回闻”。除了观鸟听鸟，还可欣赏绿树碧水与蓝天白鸟相映成趣的优美景致和享受具有岭南水乡特色的河上休闲东趣，给你一种全新感受……“人间毕竟有天堂”！

“小鸟天堂”堪称自然界一大奇观,但在被发掘为景点之前，一直沉寂于乡间，自明万历戍午年（公元1618年），当地人称之为“罗星凸”，后民间流行称“雀墩”。若非巴金先生一篇不到900字的散文《鸟的天堂》，这个“小景点”恐怕仍是养在深闺无人识。     巴老当时在远隔千里的上海，何以与当时还是名不见经传的“雀墩”结缘呢？回答这个问题,不得不提鲜为人知的“西江乡村师范学校”，以及新会大泽李苑乡陈洪友先生。     1930年，新会大泽乡陈洪有先生及天马乡人陈毓就《鸟的天堂》中提到的“陈”，天马务本堂小学校长、天禄乡人叶渠均（文中提到的“叶”），还有廖北和、刘家沃等青年，他们在上海劳动大学读书时深受陶行知办学思想的影响，在实践中研究和试验乡村教育，贯彻知行合一、手脑双全的教育理论。1932年春，以陈洪有为首的这群朝气蓬勃、进步有为的新会籍上海劳动大学毕业生，在当时新会篁竹乡（今江门市郊篁庄管理区）创办了西江乡村师范学校，他们分别担任该校各教学组组长……

小鸟天堂扩建对外开放后，增添了民歌演唱。大鳌民歌手演唱的“咸水歌”，令游客对新会的水乡风情有了更深刻的印象。“咸水歌”是新会19种民歌中的一种。据史志记载，新会位于珠江三角洲的西南部，大部分土地冲积成沙田，水上居民世代以船为家，从事渔业，居无定所。“咸水歌”正是罥（念娟）家的水上民歌。新会沙田区（以大鳌、睦洲两镇为主）流行的民歌分为“咸水歌”、“高堂歌”、“大缯歌”、“担伞调”、“姑妹歌（调）”等。咸水歌音阶调式是“54123”的“徵”调式五声音阶。有时出现的“7”是色彩音，不影响音阶形态。节奏自由多变，常用2/4与3/4混合拍子交替出现，使曲调显得明亮。结构上以两句体为基本，这是与其它民歌明显不同的特点，即使由多句组成的歌如六句、八句，也是以两句作一节。     沙田咸水歌的音乐语言、艺术形式和表现手法简明朴实、平易近人、生动灵活，且题材广泛，演唱形式繁多，除了自己抒情，还可与他人对唱、斗歌，最大特点是触景生情，即兴唱酬。过去，在大鳌、睦洲等沙田区，凡有村民聚居的基头、围尾、河岸、艇中，不时听到人们对唱和斗歌，以歌自娱，以歌定情，以歌会友。
