A few years ago @Calyptorhynchus posted a species list for Jurong: Species list at Jurong [Jurong Bird Park] As is normal with bird parks there have been quite some changes in the collection since then and many species have been moved around. Below is the list based on my visit in April 2019. Most of the signage has been recently updated (and very few missing species were seen). Except when indicated otherwise information is taken from signage and the vast majority of species were actually seen. Currently there are approximately 340 bird species on show. Thanks to @Zooish for the list of species used in the shows and other additions. Any additions are off course welcome. ** species seen but not signed PENGUIN ENCOUNTER African penguin Humboldt penguin King penguin Gentoo penguin Macaroni penguin Southern rockhopper penguin Silver gull Grey-headed gull HELICONIA WALK 1.

I assume this is supposed to be lineated barbet? Either way, thanks a lot for this list! Very interesting to compare to the situation when I was there in 2016, and definitely good to see there are still quite some rarities around!
It means they are in aviaries which are situated behind the on-show aviaries - they aren't on display but you can still see them in the aviaries behind the main aviaries.
Exactly what Chlidonias said. Though you should take binoculars if you have them, because otherwise you can't really see tge off-show birds.
Great list. Just a few more to add.

Oh and the reason why the Birds of Prey aviary is being upgraded PH to loan Philippine Eagle pair to Singapore
Hmmm I wonder if they'll be on display when I'm there in June - my main reason for visiting is to see the Spix macaws but this could be an added bonus
That's two months away - I'm suspecting not (but hopefully yes, for your sake!). This article from today says "They will be cared for at the Jurong Bird Park, which has been preparing for months for their arrival, said Dr Cheng Wen-Haur, deputy chief executive and chief life sciences officer of Wildlife Reserves Singapore (WRS). The WRS did not say when exactly they would arrive." One of world’s rarest eagles to land at Jurong Bird Park this year
Please can anyone here identify the bird shown in the two shots linked below? It was in Lory Loft on 20 April 2019. I can't tie it to any of the parrot species listed above, although it may be a juvenile given the apparent tufts of down in the closer shot. KP190351 KP190352
