In the Mangrove-hall the Mangrove heron ( Butorides striatus ) has been bred succesfully.

 

A first in Burgers?

 

Not by far, there are several chicks every year.

 

Any updates on the twins?

 

Sunday I could barely see them, because of a very caring mother . As far as I know they are still doing fine.

Other news: 3 greater flamingo's hatched, there are now 4 young white bearded wildebeasts, so with a group of almost 20 animals, they now have the biggest group in Europe. Further 2 bighorn sheep were born, as is a siamang

 

Thank you that sounds great

Good luck spotting them

 

I visited here last week, I have to say from the zoos I've seen in Europe so far this is easily in the top 5. It has only a few enclosures that I feel could be better, but overall a fantastic experience.
On a side note I also went to Rotterdam, and this easily fits into a Euro top 10 too.
