This is a wonderful place to see birds. I had to remind myself that the birds are wild as it felt like a zoo as the birds are so close and plentiful and often sitting right by a sign that is about their species. Don't forget to look in the trees and bushes for the little "bush birds" like warblers and flycatchers. After paying entry and viewing for a while you can leave and come back same day using same ticket.

Ce lieu est magique. Les oiseaux sont à quelques mètres de vous et n’ont pas peur. Il est facile de faire des photos des oiseaux plus craintifs car il y a des observatoires mis à disposition des visiteurs. Ce parc ornithologique est vraiment super pour des balades en famille.
