Birdworld has a pretty good bird collection, the exhibits are more in favour of the birds than the visitors as most of them are mesh and can be overcrowded with plants but it defintely benefits the birds as they have a good breeding record.
The only trouble I ever had was trying to see an African Black Crake, it moved so fast around the enclosure, I never got a clear view of it as it ran in and out of the undergrowth.
yes that is birdland. they have the only king pengunins in england here is the website Birdland Park & Gardens, Bourton-on-the-Water : Home Page here is there animal fact pages Birdland Park & Gardens, Bourton-on-the-Water : The Birds and here is there map Birdland Park & Gardens, Bourton-on-the-Water : Park Map i have yet to visit birdland, but have been to birdworld on a school trip hope this helps Regards Cat-Man
We have loads of Humboldt Penguins. Birdworld's Humboldt's are so good at breeding they actually say that anywhere that has Humboldt's probably has one of their penguins. They then proved this by laying 2 eggs when I was there for work experience. Marwell Zoo, London Zoo and Whipsnade have Humboldts (though Whipsnade does have Rockhoppers too)... but I don't know where there are King Penguins in the UK
It`s alright we won`t thank you as you forgot to mention that Birdland still has a group of King Penguins.
Well, I'm off to Birdworld on Tuesday, I can't wait to see the Macaws, Cockatoo's and Penguins Does anyone know if they still have the Hyacinth Macaw (Blubid?) still?
