      I like the theming in the Asian Gardens realm of this zoo.
    • geomorph
      Yes, and this aviary has a nice selection of colorful birds to complete the theming!
    • Ituri
      Anybody have a species list...
    • geomorph
      Sorry, their website does not have a list of species in the aviary.
    • ThylacineAlive
      I saw:
      Demoiselle Crane
      *Sulawesi Hornbill
      Masked Lapwing (V. m. miles)
      Reeves's Muntjac
      Swan Goose
      Javan Pond Heron
      Giant Asian Pond Turtle
      Malayan Pond Turtle (Cuora amboinensis kamaroma)

      I also saw a large tortoise which is probably an Asian Brown Tortoise.

      A full list of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and cartilaginous fish species on show at Lowry Park in October 2013 can be found in my trip list posted here: http://www.zoochat.com/22/maguari-florida-georgia-338272/index8.html#post746010

      I think Ituri meant specifically for this aviary - the following were definitely seen or labelled here (I may have forgotten a few as some species doubled up around the zoo):

      Demoiselle Crane
      Masked Lapwing
      Victoria Crowned Pigeon
      Satyr Tragopan
      Sunda Teal
      Swan Goose
      Javan Pond Heron
      Reeves' Muntjac
      Amboina Box Turtle

      I remember thinking it odd how ground-based the species were, overall. I think the hornbill sign mentioned by Thylo had been removed when I was there (or I missed it!).
    • Chlidonias
      had they also removed the word "Sulawesi" from the front of the aviary?
    • Maguari
      Good question! I don't think so!
