The whole family can enjoy the comical parrot circus and be attracted by the birds of prey in the King of the Skies show. The birds shows at the Pools Amphitheatre, featuring flamingoes, macaws, hornbills and cockatoos, are both spectacular and funny. These shows are recommended particular for children. The Penguin Parade enclosure, in a re-created Antarctic setting, houses more than 200 penguins of five species. Within the Penguin Parade enclosure, there are some 50 other seabirds. The Southeast Asian Birds Aviary house in its 24 individual aviaries and a main walk-in aviary, more than 100 species of birds from the equatorial jungles of Southeast Asia. The birds’ natural equatorial habitat is re- created within this exhibit, including simulated tropical thunderstorms every day at noon. One of the nicer areas of the park was the Waterfall aviary, home to more than 1,500 free – flying African birds. This is an enclosed section of the park with many small tropical birds and a beautiful man- made waterfall. The best way to start a tour of the Bird Park is to board the modern, air-conditioned railway system. Its route covers the entire Park , providing excellent elevated views of the various exhibits.
