      Quite an impressive species lineup. Hope to finally get to this zoo next year.

      If I am remembering correctly the zoo has a large collection of rarer birds off display, right?

      There are also a few separate aviaries here containing some Marianas gems like Guam Rail, Golden White-Eye, Mariana Fruit-Dove, and Guam Kingfisher. The zoo has Bridled White-Eye behind the scenes as well. The free-flight should contain Red-Throated Parrotfinch along with the species listed here but they probably don't have a sign just yet.

      This house also includes a large pond filled with various odd turtles, fishes, and yabbies viewed through an underwater tunnel. Elsewhere are tanks for Madagascar fishes and a Cuban Crocodile enclosure.

      Did I remember it all, right @Ituri? :p

      @ThylacineAlive basically. The parrotfinches are Tricolored Parrotfinches (Erythrura tricolor). There's also currently a few birds that I'm guessing are only temporarily in here, White-cheeked Pintail, and Crested Pigeon. The free-flight area also houses a small group of Indian Flying-Foxes.
